Instructions

Remove the wrappers from the Hershey chocolate kisses and set them aside.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line muffin cups (approximately 2-1/2 inches in diameter) with paper baking cups.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract. Beat the mixture on high speed for about 3 minutes.

Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about halfway.

Gently press one chocolate kiss into the center of each cup of batter.

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched in the center.

Once baked, remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Frost the cooled cupcakes with your favorite chocolate frosting.
