Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
In a large bowl cream shortening and sugars until light and fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla.
Beat well. Add flour, salt, baking powder and mix until blended.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls.
Press each ball around a candy kiss, completely enclosing the kiss (like a chocolate covered cherry). Bake 12 to 15 minutes on ungreased cookie sheet.
Remove to wire racks to cool.
Makes about 4 dozen.
