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

In large mixer bowl cream butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Combine flour and cocoa; blend into creamed mixture. Add nuts; beat on low speed until well blended. Chill dough 1 hour or until firm enough to handle. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Mold scant tablespoons of dough around each unwrapped kiss; covering kiss completely.

Shape into balls; place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes or until almost set. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet onto wire rack. Cool completely. Roll in confectioners' sugar.
