Ingredients

  • 1 (15.25-ounce) package brownie mix with syrup pouch (for 13x9-inch pan)

  • 1/4 cup Hershey's cocoa powder

  • 1/4 cup finely crushed peppermint candies

  • 2 tablespoons Hershey's chocolate syrup (from syrup pouch)

  • 3 tablespoons water

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar for rolling

  • 48 Hershey's Kisses Milk Chocolates or Hershey's Kisses Candy Cane Candies

Directions

  1. Stir together brownie mix, cocoa, and crushed peppermint candies in a large bowl. Add contents of syrup pouch, water, egg, and oil, beating until well blended. Refrigerate until firm enough to roll, about 1 hour.

  2. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease. Remove wrappers from candies.

  3. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in powdered sugar and place on prepared cookie sheet.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until set, 9 to 11 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes. Press candy piece into the center of each cookie. Slide parchment paper and cookies to a wire rack or remove cookies from cookie sheet to a wire rack. Cool completely.

Recipe Tip

Some peppermint may melt out along the edges of the cookies during baking. After removing from the oven, immediately use the edge of a knife or spatula to push melted peppermint back to the edges of the cookies.
