Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until melted. Allow to cool.
• Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter and cooled chocolate on medium speed until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition, then the vanilla. Scrape the sides of the bowl and continue to mix on medium speed until combined.
• Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the mixer and mix until just combined.
• Put the red sprinkles in a bowl. Scoop mounded tablespoons of the dough. Roll into balls and roll each ball in the sprinkles to cover completely. Place on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are poufy and set, about 10 minutes. When still warm, press a chocolate candy into the top of each. Let the cookies sit on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough, sprinkles and chocolate candies.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Gently stir with a whisk to evenly distribute. Set aside. Fit a stand mixer with a paddle attachment and cream the butter, both sugars, and vanilla until light and creamy. Add the eggs and mix until completely incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until the ingredients are just combined. Use a tablespoon to place the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets. Do not flatten the cookie dough balls. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes. Do not over-bake. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Then, gently press a Kiss into the middle of each cookie. Cool for 15 to 20 more minutes then serve warm. Or, let the cookies cool completely before serving or storing.

Steps:

• Cut cookie dough into 1/4-in. slices. On a floured surface, roll each slice into a 6-in. rope. Cut half of the ropes in half widthwise. Form into X's on ungreased baking sheets; seal edges and flatten slightly. Shape remaining ropes into O's on ungreased baking sheets; seal the edges and flatten slightly. Sprinkle with sugar if desired. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Cool for 3 minute; remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

Steps:

• Sift flour, salt, and baking powder together into a bowl. With an electric mixer, beat butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in flour mixture. Wrap dough in plastic wrap. Chill 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Let dough stand at room temperature 10 minutes. Generously flour a large sheet of parchment. Roll out dough on parchment to a scant 1/4-inch thickness, running an offset spatula under dough and dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking. Transfer dough on parchment to freezer, and chill 15 minutes.
• Using a 2- to 3-inch X- or O-shaped cookie cutter, quickly cut out shapes from dough. (If dough begins to soften, return to freezer for 3 to 5 minutes.) Reroll scraps once and cut out more shapes.
• Transfer shapes to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Freeze 15 minutes. Sprinkle shapes with sanding sugar. Bake until edges are just golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.

Steps:

• Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Whisk sugar, shortening, corn syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Stir sugar mixture into flour mixture until just combined. Refrigerate dough until chilled, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Scoop cookie dough using a cookie scoop or 1 tablespoon so all the cookies are uniform; shape dough into teardrop-shaped cookies. Flatten the pointed side of each cookie to form the 'face'. Arrange cookies on baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Pulse pecans in a food processor until finely chopped; transfer to a bowl.
• Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
• Dip the top of each cookie in the melted chocolate, spreading to fully coat the 'body' of each hedgehog. Press cookies, chocolate-side down, into the ground pecans forming the 'fur'. Arrange cookies on a sheet of waxed paper to set, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer the remaining melted chocolate to a piping bag or plastic bag with a corner snipped. Pipe chocolate onto the pointed end of each cookie for eyes and a nose.

Steps:

• Sift together flour, cocoa, salt, and cinnamon into a bowl. With an electric mixer, beat butter and confectioners' sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Gradually mix in flour mixture. Wrap dough in plastic wrap. Chill 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze 15 minutes.
• Using a 2- or 3-inch X- or O-shaped cookie cutter, quickly cut out shapes from dough (if dough begins to soften, return to freezer for 3 to 5 minutes). Reroll scraps once and cut out more shapes.
• Transfer shapes to baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Brush flour from shapes. Sprinkle with sanding sugar. Bake until crisp, rotating sheets halfway through, about 8 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream together shortening, softened butter, brown sugar and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy.

• Add to the wet ingredients and combine.
• Roll into 1 inch balls and roll in 1/4 cup sugar.
• Place onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake for 8 minutes or until set up.
• Let the cookies cool for 1 minute, then place a Hershey's Hug on top of each one. Press down gently.
• Allow to cool until the Hugs are set up.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease two 12 inch pizza pans.
• Stir together flour, baking soda and salt and set aside.
• Using a large bowl, cream together butter, cream cheese and sugars. Add eggs and beat until fluffy. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture, blending until dough becomes stiff. Stir in chocolate chunks and nuts until well blended.
• Divide dough in two. Press each half into the prepared pans. Bake 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Centers should be firm. Cool in the pan on wire rack. Serve by cutting into wedges.
