Snow Caps. Chocolate Crinkles. Chocolate Blossoms. Whatever you want to call them, I think they're pretty much a standard cookie fave in any household. I don't have a particular recipe I go to when I want to make these cookies, I usually just end up coming across a recipe for it in some cookbook I'm looking through and inspiration just hits me. I don't think I've ever made the same recipe twice... However, I've never been disappointed! This recipe was especially good because the cookies came out very chewy and the the chocolate kisses were just a little bit melted, which made kind of a molten-center. I know some people like crunchy, crisp cookies, but I like my cookies the way I like my pizza crust. Soft and chewy.As I've stated in past posts, I'm more of a cookie bar kind of person than a traditional cookie one. Every time I decide to make a traditional cookie, I'm always reminded of how much extra time they take to prep! With bars, you just make the dough, press it in the pan, bake, eat, done. With traditional cookies, like these for example, there's the scooping, and the rolling into balls, and the coating with powdered sugar, and adding the kisses on top after baking. It was like an all day excursion! I dream of the day when I have a double oven so I can bake more batches at once, but for right now, I'm stuck with my "one or two pans at a time" oven. It's always a relief when all that work and prep is worth the reward!
