Here are the ingredients you need to make these Easter blossom cookies, plus step by step instructions for how to make them.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp milk
- 2 cups flour
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- Assorted Easter sprinkles
- 30 Hershey’s Kiss candies
Step by Step Instructions
1. Heat your oven to 350°F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
2. Add the sugar, butter, egg, vanilla, and milk to a large mixing bowl, then beat until the mixture is light and creamy.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda until evenly combined.
4. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a soft dough comes together. Avoid overmixing.
5. Using a 1 ⅓ tablespoons cookie dough scoop, gather the dough and roll it between your hands to form a smooth ball.
6. Roll each dough ball in sprinkles, coating the top and sides, then place it sprinkle-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the bottoms are lightly golden and the tops look set.
8. Remove from the oven and immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
