Instructions
- In a medium bowl whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Using a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together on medium speed until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, mix on medium-high speed until combined, about 1 minute.
- Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, add the milk and food coloring, then mix at low speed until well combined. If needed add a few more drops of food coloring.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to 3 days.
- If chilling for longer than 2 hours, allow the dough to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before using it.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Scoop about 1 - 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Roll each ball in the 1/2 cup of sugar for coating and place on the baking sheet about 3 inches apart.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes or until the edges appear set. Centers will look soft.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and cool for just 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet.
- After that immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie, transfer the cookies to a large plate and transfer in the freezer for 10-20 minutes to quickly set the chocolate, otherwise, it will melt.
- Remove from the freezer and serve.
