Feature: Kisses for Mom! 4 Easy Kiss Cookies to Bake for Mother’s Day

Red Velvet Blossom Cookies: a striking cookie that combine the distinctive look of the traditional Peanut Butter Blossoms with American red velvet cake, a rich, sweet chocolate flavored confection with a unique deep red or red-brown color. Gorgeous!

Cherry Kisses: these fruit-filled meringues melt in your mouth. They are made with egg whites and sugar beaten until stiff and then baked in a low oven. With no butter, margarine, oil, or egg yolks, the recipe’s only fat comes from walnuts.

Candy Kiss Cookies: a variation of the classic Hershey Kiss Peanut Butter Cookies, this version is a simple butter cookie rolled in colored sugar with a Hershey Kiss or other candy kiss planted in the middle. You can use peppermint (as the recipe calls for) or your favorite kiss flavor.

Triple Chocolate Kisses: these meringues with chocolate centers look elegant but are very easy to make. Grated baking chocolate, chocolate kisses, and a dusting of cocoa powder combine with a light, fluffy meringue to make a scrumptious and deceptively stylish cookie that’s perfect for the chocoholic moms you know and love.
