Makes 24
Ring in the New Year with these dazzling bites!
Why not get your kiss when the clock strikes midnight with one of these decadent cookies.
The dark chocolate makes them irresistibly rich and the gold and silver sprinkles make them party perfect.
(you might also beat by hand or use a hand mixer.)
Add the egg and vanilla and beat on medium until well incorporated.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder and salt until well combined.
Place the sparkling sugars in three separate shallow bowls or combine them in one bowl if you prefer.
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper (or bake in batches).
Shape the dough into 24, 1 tablespoon-size balls.
(Or roll all of the balls in the combined sugar.)
Place the sugar-coated balls of dough a few inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 10 minutes, or until set and just starting to crack on top.
Meanwhile, remove the wrappers from the chocolate Kisses.
Let cool completely on the baking sheets or a wire rack before serving.
Note:These bites can be made up to five days in advance.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
