Fudgy Bonbons

HI!!

I thought I would use one of my favorite chocolate recipes to start us off. These r absolutely delicious but I wouldn’t eat too many at one sitting..they r sweet!

Ingredients:

• 1 (12-ounce) package (2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine
• 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
• 2 cups Pillsbury Best All-Purpose or unbleached flour
• 1/2 cup of finely chopped nut, if desired (I usually don’t)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 60 milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped
• 2 ounces white baking bar or vanilla flavored candy coating
• 1 teaspoon shortening or oil

Heat oven to 350 degrees. In medium saucepan, combine chocolate chips & butter; cook & stir over very low heat until chips r melted & smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk; mix well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. In medium bowl, combine flour, nuts, chocolate mixture & vanilla; mix well. Shape 1 tablespoonful (use measuring spoon) of dough around each candy kiss, covering completely. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake @ 350 degrees for 6 to 8 minutes. Cookies will be soft & appear shiny but become firm as they cool. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Remove from cookie sheets; cool. In small saucepan, combine white baking bar & shortening; cook & stir over low heat until melted & smooth. Drizzle over cookies. Store in tightly covered container.

Yield: 5 dozen cookies
