Cocoa Kiss cookies

I got this recipe out of "Santa's Favorite cookies" cookbook.  This book I picked up out of a yard sale for a quarter.  The recipes in this little book are amazing.  Trying them out for Christmas this year.  The first cookie I made was called Cocoa Kiss cookies.
To start I mixed 1 cup of butter with 2/3 cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.  In a separate bowl I mixed 1 2/3cups of flour, 1/4cup of cocoa.  When both were mixed well I combined the two bowls slowly to make sure all was combined.  The Hershey kisses had to be unwrapped and placed into a bowl.  Some of course didn't make into the bowl :).  Now comes my favorite part.  Take one kiss and wrap the batter around the kiss.  Don't put too much batter on the hershey kiss which I did on some. 

Once that is complete place in the oven at 375 degrees and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes or until the ball has set
When the cookies have completely cooled, in a small bowl place some powdered sugar.  Roll the cookies in the sugar. 
These cookies turned out awesome! They are very rich in taste but very good. :)
