Ingredients

¾ cup shortening
½ cup white sugar
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup finely chopped walnuts
48 milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Using a mixer, cream shortening and sugars until fluffy. Add egg and extracts and beat well.
Add flour, baking powder, salt, nuts and mix well.
Form into 1 inch balls. Press each ball around a kiss so kiss is completely covered (like a chocolate covered cherry).
