  • 60 kisses
  • 2 oz. white chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable shortening or oil

Instructions

Tips & Substitutions

For an extra depth of flavor, consider using dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. If you don't have butter, coconut oil can be a great substitute. To make these cookies even more festive, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top after baking. If you want to reduce sweetness, you can slightly decrease the amount of sweetened condensed milk.

Serving Suggestions

These cookies are perfect for holiday gatherings or as a sweet treat alongside coffee or tea. Pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert. They also make a lovely addition to dessert platters, especially when paired with other sweets like Apple Crisp Parfaits or Banana Split Refrigerator Cake.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these cookies gluten-free?

Yes, you can substitute regular flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Look for a blend that includes xanthan gum for the best texture. Just be sure to check the other ingredients for gluten content as well.

How can I make the chocolate drizzle more colorful?

To add color to the white chocolate drizzle, try using food coloring. Simply divide the melted white chocolate into small bowls and mix in a few drops of your desired colors before drizzling over the cookies.

What can I use instead of chocolate kisses?

If you want to replace the chocolate kisses, you can use any type of chocolate candy, such as Rolos or caramel-filled chocolates. Alternatively, mini chocolate chips can work for a different texture and flavor.
