Ingredients

15.25 oz. Betty Crocker White SuperMoist Cake Mix {1 box}
2 Large Eggs
½ cup Melted Butter, or Canola Oil, or Vegetable Oil
2.5 oz. Red Sugar Sprinkles {1 bottle}
36 Hershey's Kisses Candy Cane Mint Candies unwrapped

Instructions

With hand mixer, mix Cake Mix, Eggs, and oil together in medium sized mixing bowl until well combined.
Place dough in fridge, and refrigerate dough for 45 minutes – 1 hour.
While waiting for dough to chill, line Cookie Sheets with Parchment Paper, and pour red sugar sprinkles into small bowl and set aside.
After dough has chilled, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Roll into small tablespoon sized balls, then roll around in red sugar bowl. {I left about half of my cookies plain without red sugar sprinkles, and rolled the other half in the red sugar… just for a fun variety}
Place on parchment lined cookie sheets, approx. 2 inches apart. {do not flatten dough balls}
Bake at 350 degrees for approx. 8 minutes, or until done. {time will vary depending on style of cookie sheets you use - nonstick vs. aluminum}
Immediately after removing from oven, carefully place an unwrapped Candy Cane Hershey Kiss in the center of each cookie, and gently push down.
Allow to cool slightly, then transfer to cooling rack to finish cooling. ENJOY!
