I gave this 3 stars. I liked it and the look was very good. I was disappointed that my hershey kiss did not melt and kept it's shape. I thought it would have melted and stayed melted. My future hubby suggested I try wrapping some dough around peanut butter. I think maybe I'd like to try a reese cup. Next time I make this I'm going to use a different dough as I would like to see the cookie softer. I'm using Cherry Snowballs #161704 . It makes a soft buttery dough. Thanks for posting a good recipe. Christine (internetnut)

LOVED THESE COOKIES! I'm not a big nut fan and I'm never really sure who is going to eat cookies when I bring Christmas trays out and about. One person commented that they were delicious without the nuts but I wanted to preserve the texture so I subsituted a cup of graham cracker crumbs and added an extra 1/2 cup butter to compensate for the absorbancy of the crumbs. But these were just to die for. I doubled the recipe in order to have enough for my Christmas trays and still have some leftover for my family to eat but they were gone within a couple of hours of everyone sneaking. I will definetly be making more. These are my new FAVORITE cookies! Thanks for such a wonderful recipe!

Try changing the recipe to 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour instead of 2 cups and using 1 cup of nuts instead of 1 1/2 cups for a cookie that isn't so dry. They are really good cookies, in my opinion.

These were very tasty. I did find them dry as well but they had great flavor. I also found that the icing sugar became very sticky because I rolled them in the sugar when they were still a little bit warm as the instructions said. I thought that it almost made them seem glazed, which was ok. thank you Susie for a yummy recipe.
