For the Cookies:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • Chocolate kisses, unwrapped (about 48, depending on the size of your cookies)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Set aside.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars:
    • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla:
    • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  5. Combine with Dry Ingredients:
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in Oats:
    • Fold in the rolled oats until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Shape and Bake:
    • Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
  8. Press Chocolate Kisses:
    • Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, gently press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie. The heat from the cookies will slightly melt the chocolate, allowing it to stick as the cookies cool.
  9. Cool:
    • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
