Wow, saw this recipe and new it was a must try. Cherry Cordial Kiss Cookie I found it posted on food.com read through it quickly, stopping to pick up Maraschino Cherries, kisses and white flour on my way home from playing tennis in 95° weather! Yes, I heated the oven up in this weather and they were worth it. After I got home realized it calls for the cherry flavored kisses but I used the regular flavor and it was still yummy. I can't think of to many people that don't like chocolate covered cherries, this has a lighter cherry flavor. The only negative is they hard to store since you can't stack them up while the kiss is still soft, so that takes a bit of planning. Which I didn't do so they are sitting around the kitchen and every time you pass by you have to try another so they may not make it to their destination.
