Wow! Christmas is here already, this month has flown by! This is the only time of year I do a lot of baking. I make several cookies plates for friends and neighbors and this year was no different. I always make dipped pretzels, Christmas bark with pistachios and dried cherries, bourbon balls but this year I added these grinch cookies and for our friends with dogs I added some bone broth gummies for the little fur babies!
These cookies were so easy as it’s starts with a packaged sugar cookie mix.
INGREDIENTS
1 package sugar cookie mix (about 17.5 ounce)
All of the ingredients called for on the sugar cookie package
Green food coloring
Green colored decorating sugar
Red heart cookie decorations
Hershey Kisses
DIRECTIONS
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Remove wrappers from chocolate kisses and set aside.
Mix cookies dough according to package directions. Add in a few drops of your green food coloring to get your desired color and mix well.
Shape dough into 1 inch balls and roll in colored sugar. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned and the cookie is set. Remove from oven let cool just slightly. Put cookies on a cooling rack. Press a milk chocolate kiss in the center of each cookie. Add the heart. You can use a little baking gel icing if needed to help the heart stay.
Note-the chocolate kisses can get soft 9f added right out of the oven so it is best to let the cookie cool for just a minute or two.
Enjoy!
