Hershey's Milk Chocolate Kisses with Almonds
What it is
These are individually wrapped milk chocolate candies. Each piece features a smooth milk chocolate shell encasing a whole roasted almond. The iconic foil wrapper makes them easy to identify and convenient for sharing or enjoying one at a time. They are a popular choice for snacking and baking.
How people cook with it
These chocolate kisses are versatile for both sweet treats and decorative purposes.
- Snacking on the go
- Decorating baked goods
- Filling candy dishes
- Adding to trail mix
Simply unwrap the foil and enjoy the creamy milk chocolate and crunchy almond combination. They are perfect for casual snacking straight from the bag. For baking, they can be melted and incorporated into frosting or ganache, or placed on top of cookies and cupcakes before or after baking. They also melt well for dipping fruits or pretzels, adding a delightful chocolatey coating with a nutty surprise inside. Their small size makes them easy to distribute evenly in batters or doughs.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to plain milk chocolate kisses, these include a whole almond, which adds a distinct nutty flavor and a satisfying crunch. The presence of the almond changes the texture and taste profile, offering a more complex snacking experience than a smooth chocolate alone.
Who it is for
Home bakers and candy lovers often reach for these for their sweet cravings and creative dessert projects.
How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any remaining chocolate kisses in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in their original wrappers or transfer them to an airtight container to prevent them from absorbing odors or becoming stale. Proper storage ensures their quality for future enjoyment.
