Unicorn Kiss Cookies

These cookies with a silly name are seriously scrumptious. They’re created when

balls of sugar cookie dough are rolled in pastel-hued sanding sugars before baking.

White chocolate kisses add a smooch of creaminess to the sugar-coated bites.

Makes 36 cookies

2⁄ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

⁄ teaspoon salt

1 cup unsalted butter,

at room temperature

1½ cups sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

3–5 sanding sugars in different

colors (blue, green, pink, yellow

and/or red) for decorating

1 package (10⁄–12 oz)

chocolate candies or kisses

1

PREPARE THE PANS. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie

sheets with parchment paper.

2

MAKE THE DOUGH. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking

powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat

together the butter and sugar on medium speed until blended, about

1 minute. Reduce the speed to low, add the eggs and vanilla, and

beat until combined, about 1 minute. Turn off the mixer and scrape

down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add about half of

the flour mixture and beat on low speed just until blended. Add the

remaining flour mixture and again beat just until blended.

3

SHAPE THE COOKIES. In a shallow bowl, make separate piles of

the colored sugars. Scoop up 1 rounded tablespoon of the dough.

Scrape the dough off the spoon into your hand and roll between

your palms into a ball. Roll a different section of the dough ball in

each colored sugar to create a tie-dye effect. Place the ball on a

prepared pan. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the balls

about 3 inches apart on the pans.

4

BAKE THE COOKIES. Place 1 cookie sheet into the oven and bake

the cookies until the edges are lightly browned but the tops are

barely colored, 10–12 minutes. Let cool on the pan on a wire rack for

5 minutes, then transfer the cookies directly to the rack. Repeat with

the remaining cookie sheet of cookies.

5

DECORATE THE COOKIES. Meanwhile, unwrap the chocolate

candies. After the cookies have cooled for 10 minutes, press a candy

into the center of each cookie. Let cool completely before serving.
