Pink Sparkle Kiss Cookies
These cute pink sparkle kiss cookies are fun to make and they taste totally delectable. A must for Valentine’s Day or any day you want to show someone you love them. 💕
Every time I make these with my son Josh, we have so much fun.
He likes giving them to teachers and dropping some off at the neighbors house.
The recipe is very easy to make since you start with a cake mix.
The cookies come out moist and soft in the center with a crunchy topping from the pretty pink sanding sugar.
We buy mason jars and ribbon and pack a few in each then give them out.
They look beautiful and it’s always nice to get something homemade especially when it tastes as good as these cookies do.
Bake a batch or two up soon. Have fun and enjoy every bite of these pretty pink sparkle kiss cookies..

Here’s how these delicious cookies are made…
Here Are The Simple Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Take the wrappers off the Hershey’s Kisses, put onto a parchment or wax paper lined cookie sheet. Place in freezer.
- Combine the dry cake mix, butter, egg, and vanilla in a bowl. Mix until it forms into a dough. It will be a thick cookie dough.
- Add in the cream cheese (you will want to make sure it is very softened) and mix in completely. You can do this with your hands. If needed you can kneed the cream cheese into the dough.
- Add food coloring and mix well again. Do the same as you did with the cream cheese.
- Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
- Grabbing a small amount of dough at a time, roll in the palm of your hands to form a ball.
- Roll the balls in sanding sugar and place on a greased cookie sheet or lined with parchment paper (I like using the parchment paper)
- Bake for about 7 to 8 minutes.
- When you remove the cookies from the oven, place on a cooling rack. Press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each one. Let cool completely.
