1 c. butter, softened
2/3 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 2/3 c. unsifted all-purpose flour
1/4 c. Hershey's cocoa
1 c. finely chopped pecans
54 Hershey's Kisses chocolates (9 oz. pkg.), unwrapped
Confectioners' sugar

Cream butter, sugar, and vanilla in large mixer bowl until light and fluffy. Combine flour and cocoa; blend into creamed mixture. Add pecans; beat on low speed until well blended. Chill dough 1 hour or until firm enough to handle.

Shape scant tablespoon of dough around each unwrapped Kiss, covering completely; shape into balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until almost set. Cool slightly. Remove from cookie sheet; cool completely on wire rack. Roll in confectioners' sugar. About 4 1/2 dozen cookies.
