Day Four - A Surprise Kiss

My sister-in-law makes the BEST cookies during the holiday season. A peanut butter cookie that contains a chocolate kiss inside of it. They are called a Surprise Kiss. My husband and I looked forward to her making these every year, but now that we are all in different states, we haven't been able to indulge in this mouth watering treat for a very long time.


Today I set out to master this recipe. I had the girls help too. The girls favorite part was licking the beaters, but isn't that everyone's favorite part? I love to cook, and normally it is a lot of fun, but tonight I dropped an egg on my shoe, and just about took my pinkie off with my beater. To top it off I burnt my hand trying to get cookies out and accidentally said a four letter word in front of my kids that I would never admit to.Even after all that, I would have to say these cookies were worth it. They are the kind of cookies that people eat the entire batch in one night. They are the kind of cookies where your mouth really does water. They are the kind of cookies where you say mmmmm mmmm, mmmmmmmmm to, and cause people to stare. They are by far the yummiest cookies to date. I tried a new recipe today and it was delicious!
