These Pumpkin Kiss Cookies are a twist on the classic traditional kiss cookie made with Hershey’s Chocolate Kisses.

Great pumpkin and spice flavor throughout the cookie and then topped with a seasonal Pumpkin Kiss from Hershey’s.

Today I am bringing you Pumpkin Kiss Cookies!

Pumpkin Kiss Cookies

These cookies began as just a great pumpkin cookie recipe.

I wanted to kick them up a notch so I added some spices and then a few weeks ago, at the grocery store I found these Hershey’s Pumpkin Kisses.

I’d seen them before, but had never really thought about doing anything with them.

They are so good to eat all by themselves, or drop a couple in a mug of coffee… delish!

Then I added them to an already spectacular cookie recipe and you’ve got a recipe for the perfect Fall Pumpkin Treat!

These cookies are AMAZING! (and pair very nicely with a hot cup of coffee or warm cup of tea!)

And so my delicious Pumpkin Kiss Cookies were born.

And I cannot even tell you how great these are and I also won’t mention that we may or may not have devoured them in a day.

Hey, I have teenagers! That’s what happens around here. A lot.

  1. *Sob* I don’t think they sell pumpkin kisses in Canada cause I haven’t seen them 🙁 Your cookies are adorable and I bet the kiss really amps up the pumpkin flavour. I’m going to have to hunt a bag down. I’ve been going crazy over all the pumpkin recipes floating around the internet lately and this is being added to my must-bake list.
