1 c. butter, softened to room temp.
1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 c. flour
1 c. finely chopped walnuts
1 (5 3/4 oz.) pkg. Hershey kisses
Confectioners' sugar

At medium speed on mixer, beat sugar, butter and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add sifted flour and nuts; beat at low speed until blended. Chill dough. Remove foil from kisses. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Using about 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie, shape it around a chocolate kiss, rolling to make a smooth ball. Be sure to cover kiss completely. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 12 minutes until cookies are set but DO NOT brown. Let cool slightly on pan, then remove to wire rack. While still warm, roll in confectioners' sugar. Cool. Store in tightly covered container. Makes 45 cookies.
