Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) red velvet cake mix
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar (for rolling)
- 24 Hershey’s Kisses, unwrapped
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2. Make the cookie dough
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the red velvet cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
3. Shape the cookies
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
- Roll each ball in granulated sugar to coat.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
4. Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 9–11 minutes, or until the cookies are set but still soft in the center.
5. Add the Hershey’s Kisses
- Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Freezing: Freeze unbaked dough balls for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen, adding 1–2 minutes to the baking time.
- Variations: Use white chocolate or peppermint Hershey’s Kisses for a festive twist.
