Peppermint Pecan Candy Cane Blossoms - Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup butter, softened
    1 3/4 cups sugar
    2 eggs
    3 teaspoons vanilla extract
    3 tablespoons milk or 3 tablespoons water
    4 cups flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1 1/4 cups chopped pecans
    1 (12 ounce) bag Andes peppermint crunch baking chips
    1 (48 count) bag Hershey candy cane kisses
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove wrappers from candies.
    Beat eggs in a medium bowl with the butter, sugar, vanilla, and water until well blended.
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda; stir in the pecans and the Andes candy cane mint baking chips.
    Add the egg mixture gradually to the flour mixture, stirring to combine.
    Shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls (I used a small cookie scoop), and place on ungreased cookies sheets.
    Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes, until edges are lightly browned and cookies are set. Remove from oven; cool 3-4 minutes. Press a candy piece into center of each cookie. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. About 4 dozen cookies.
