INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, beat butter, brown sugar and
vanilla until creamy. Beat in eggs. Stir in flour and baking powder. Mix
until smooth. Shape rounded teaspoons of dough into balls. Pinch or shape
each ball to a rounded point, to resemble a chocolate candy kiss or small
mountain peak. (The cookie top will flatten slightly during baking; only a
small bump will remain.) Place on ungreased cookie sheets, rounded point
up. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes on shiny baking sheet, 18 to 20 minutes on
non-shiny baking sheet, or until golden brown. Let cool on wire racks. Melt
chocolate chips over hot, not boiling, water. Dip pointed end of each
cookie into the melted chocolate, then dip into chopped nuts. Return to
wire rack until chocolate sets. Yield: About 4 dozen (1 3/4-inch) cookies.
Tester's notes: The dough is very soft, but will hold its shape. It's an
easy to make cookie with readily available, fairly inexpensive ingredients.
This size makes a two-bite cookie; you may want to make smaller "kisses"
for one-bite cookies.
