Directions

1

Mix together butter, cream cheese and sugar in 20 qt. bowl of mixer fitted with paddle attachment until creamy. Add egg yolks, almond extract and orange juice, mixing until fully incorporated. Blend together flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Gradually add to butter mixture, mixing until well blended. Stir in 1 lb. 11 oz. coconut.

2

Cover; refrigerate 1 hour or until firm enough to handle. Heat convection oven to 300°F (standard oven: 350°F). Lightly spray sheet pans with vegetable cooking spray. Place parchment paper on prepared sheet pans. Using #60 scoop, shape dough into 1-inch balls; roll balls in remaining 1 lb. 2 oz. coconut. Place on prepared sheet pans.

3

Bake 11 to 13 minutes* or until lightly browned. Remove from oven; immediately press 3 HERSHEY'S MINI KISSES Milk Chocolates on top of each cookie, pressing down slightly. Cool 1 minute; carefully remove from sheet pans to wire rack. Cool completely.

Tip

Step 3: If using convection oven, rotate pans one-half turn (180°) after 6 minutes of baking.
