Ingredients
    3/4 cup shortening
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1/4 cup packed brown sugar
    1 egg
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon almond extract
    1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
    48 milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped
Preparation
    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).
