I want to make these for Halloween and Thanksgiving.

Pass the Sushi. Wonderful blog. I started following it this evening.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup chai concentrate
- 1 large egg
- 1 teas vanilla extract
- 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teas baking soda
- 1/8 teas salt
- 1/2 teas chai spice mix
- 22-24 Pumpkin spice Hershey’s Kisses (found at Target in the early fall)
Preparation:
Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of your
stand mixer and cream at medium speed until fluffy, or with a hand mixer, for about 2-3 minutes. Add the egg, chai concentrate, and the vanilla, mix until combined. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, scraping down the sides of the mixing bowl as necessary. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Using your hands, roll the dough into 22 to 24 1 inch round balls. Place the dough balls on parchment paper lined baking sheets and sprinkle chai spice mix lightly over cookies.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes. Meanwhile, unwrap kisses.
Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately place pumpkin kisses in the center of each cookie. Don’t touch or the kisses will turn into puddles! Cool completely.
