Cherry Chocolate Kiss Cookies

These Cherry Chocolate Kiss Cookies add a fun new twist to a classic favorite. I saw these a few months ago and I told myself I just HAVE make these for Christmas this year. So I did. The combination of maraschino cherries and chocolate kisses remind me of the those this delicious chocolate cherry cordials we see at Christmas time. These are now one of my favorite Christmas cookies!!

These Cherry sugar cookies are topped with a Hershey's Kiss and do taste just like chocolate covered cherry. These cookies look gorgeous on a Christmas cookie tray! They great cookies to share with your family, friends, teachers, and coworkers. If you are doing a Christmas cookie exchange this year, be sure to bring these!

Other times to share these cookies would be at a bridal shower, wedding, birthday party, Easter, or a summer gathering/picnic. Basically, anytime of year!
