Are you obsessed with Hershey’s Candy Cane Kisses like I am? You will love this delicious recipe for Candy Cane Kisses Cookies. That is if you can stash a bag of them long enough to make a batch!

It is a tough job. Interview wisely.
This guy did not make the cut… although he did turn out to be a great cookie taste tester in the end.
