Kiss Cookies without Peanut Butter

One year,  I wanted to make some cookies for the kids’ teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week. If you know me well, you know I love desserts.

I have a Pinterest board for desserts and another board named Chocolate – My Favorite Pinterest Board.

Usually, I make Meringue Cookies or Brownies because they are easy and quick, but I wasn’t sure how they would hold up in the gift bag. Meringue cookies don’t travel well, especially not in a Ziploc baggie in a gift bag.

I needed a quick, easy dessert, so I decided to make some Hershey’s Kiss cookies (also called thumbprint Hershey kiss cookies and Hershey drop cookies).

Looking for Hershey’s Kiss Cookies with No Peanut Butter?

On the Hershey’s Kisses bag there’s a recipe for Kiss Cookies, but that recipe had peanut butter. Some of the kids in one of the classes have peanut allergies. I was not sure about the other class.

I searched the internet for Hershey kiss cookie variations, combined a few Hershey kisses cookie recipes, and came up with my own version of this recipe without peanut butter. I also developed a version of Kiss Cookies with peanut butter.

Recipe for Kiss Cookies without Peanuts

This is an easy and quick cookie recipe. It hardly took any time to prepare and I already had all of the ingredients in the house.

The cookies tasted great.  My family and the teachers loved them.  I will keep the recipe on hand for the next time I need to make a dessert that travels well quickly.

Before you start making the kiss cookies no peanut butter recipe, make sure you have butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda, milk, and Hershey’s Kisses.
