Ingredients
- 150 g all-purpose flour
- 50 g natural cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric hand mixer to beat butter until creamy, about 3 minutes. Add brown sugar and cream until fluffy.

- Place the dough balls on the lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each.
- Bake for 7-8 minutes until puffy. Immediately press a Hershey’s kiss in the center of each cookie after removing from oven.
