Wheatless Christmas Blossom Cookies
48 assorted chocolate Kisses
creaming ingredients
1/2 C corn oil margarine, room temp
1 C granulated sugar
dry ingredients:
1-1/2 C oat flour
1/2 C rice flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
wet ingredients:
1 egg
2 Tb 2% milk
1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
red or green sugar crystals
Note: these cookies can be made with ordinary all-purpose wheat flour by substituting 2 C wheat flour for the oat and rice flours.
Note: Hershey’s now has a wide variety of Kisses. Substitute any variety — or include several — according to your own taste. Especially apt for Christmas is the candy cane mint variety.
1. Remove wrappers from the chocolate Kisses. If the weather is warm, keep them refrigerated.
2. Preheat oven to 375°F.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the oat and rice flours with the baking soda and salt.
4. In another small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and vanilla.
5. In a large bowl, beat together the margarine and granulated sugar until fluffy.
6. Add the whisked wet ingredients to the creaming ingredients and beat well. Add the whisked dry ingredients  in three parts to the sugar-margarine mixture, mixing well after each addition.
7. For each cookie, roll into a ball, roll the ball in colored sugar, and place on ungreased cookie sheet. (Refrigerate dough for better handling.)
8. For each batch of cookies, bake 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool 2 or 3 minutes on cookie sheet. Press one Kiss in the center of each cookie. Place cookies on cooling rack to finish cooling.
