For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate kisses.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
To prevent the cookies from spreading too much, chill the dough for 30 minutes before rolling into balls.
Experiment with different toppings! Chopped nuts, sprinkles, or a drizzle of melted white chocolate would be delicious.
