Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Funfetti Sugar Cookie Mix, softened cream cheese, and large egg. Stir until a soft and slightly sticky dough forms.
  3. Pour the sanding sugar or non-pareils into a shallow bowl for coating.
  4. Using a 1½ tablespoon cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it into balls. Roll each ball in the prepared sanding sugar.
  5. If the dough is sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.
  6. Place the sugar-coated cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1½ inches apart.
  7. Bake the cookies for 8-12 minutes, until the edges set while the centers remain soft.
  8. Once baked, let them cool for 3-5 minutes on the baking sheet, then press a Hershey’s Strawberry Ice Cream Cone Kiss into the center of each cookie.
  9. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack, or enjoy them warm.
