Make the holidays even sweeter with these gluten free Chocolate Candy Cane Kiss Cookies. A chocolate cookie, rolled in sprinkles, topped with a peppermint cane cane kiss.
I’m always looking for new gluten free cookies to add to my holiday baking list, and this year it’s these gluten free Chocolate Candy Cane Kiss cookies.
A soft, chocolate cookie that is topped with a Hershey’s candy cane kiss.
While most of Hershey’s seasonal kisses adorn a “may contain wheat” statement, the candy cane kisses don’t. In Canada we don’t get the same seasonal offerings the U.S. has available, so it’s pretty easy to steer clear of those.
I decided to roll these chocolate cookies in chocolate sprinkles, but they would be great rolled in coarse sugar, confectioners’ (icing) sugar, or even left plain. Don’t let that stop you from baking them.
The candy cane kisses do have a lower melt point, meaning they can turn into a puddle if you are not careful. To avoid that, before I started making my cookie dough, I unwrapped the kisses, placed them in an air-tight container, and froze them.
I then waited about 2 minutes before placing the kisses on top of the baked cookies. The kisses being cold, and the cookies having a chance to cool a little bit, helped the kisses to keep their shape.
Once you have added the candy cane kiss to create the gluten free Chocolate Candy Cane Kiss cookie, don’t handle it again. It will get soft with the heat of the cookie, but it will hold it’s shape, and solidify as the cookie cools.
