Shape dough into balls using a rounded teaspoonful for each.  Roll balls in sugar and place on greased baking sheets

Bake at 375^o for 8 minutes.  Remove from oven.  Top each cookie with a solid milk chocolate candy kiss, pressing down firmly so cookie cracks around edge.  Return to oven; bake 2 to 5 minutes longer until golden brown.
