Mint Kiss Spritz

2/3 cup sugar
1 cup butter -- softened
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 teaspoon mint extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
green food coloring
60 Hershey's Kisses

Heat oven to 400F. In large mixer bowl combine sugar, butter, egg, salt, vanilla, and mint extract. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until mixture is light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add flour. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in green food coloring, adding just enough to acheive the desired color. If dough is too soft, cover and refrigerate until firm enough to form cookies, 30 to 45 minutes. Place dough in cookie press. Form desired shapes 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Immediately after removing cookies from oven place one Hershey's kiss on each cookie.

These are the BEST cookies! We do not have a cookie press so we used our standard cookie scoop. We also used the mint kisses as another person who reviewed suggested. These will be on our Christmas cookie list from here on forward. five stars

This was my first time using the cookie press and I thought this recipe would be great. The cookies were bland and not at all what I expected. I hope to find a better recipe! three stars

I think you should have 1/2 tsp. of the mint extract rather than just a 1/4 tsp. Mine didn't taste very minty, more buttery. Also, a lot of them fell apart. I only got two dozen good cookies. Will try recipe again, but a friend suggested I add cream cheese to the recipe. She said it makes the texture easier to use with the cookie press. two stars
