Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Spring Blossom Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unwrap the Hershey Kisses and set them aside in a small bowl.
  3. Blend together the sugar and softened salted butter in a large mixing bowl until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until fluffy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking soda. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, stirring gently until a soft dough forms.
  5. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and roll each ball in the bright colored sanding sugar until coated.
  6. Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 7 minutes until slightly underbaked.
  8. Press an unwrapped Hershey Kiss into the center of each cookie immediately after removing them from the oven.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before serving.
