1. Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Line three baking sheets
with foil. Grease with shortening.
2. For cookies, combine shortening, brown sugar, peanut
butter, milk and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at medium
speed of electric mixer until well blended. Add egg. Beat
just until blended.
3. Combine flour, salt and baking soda. Add to creamed
mixture at low speed. Mix just until blended.
4. Divide dough into 3 equal parts. Working with 1/3 of
dough at a time, break off 8 equal pieces of dough. Roll
into balls. "Hide" a chocolate kiss in one of the 8 balls,
molding dough with fingers around chocolate kiss. (This is
the prize.) Arrange balls on baking sheet almost touching
in a 6-inch (15 cm) circle. Flatten balls slightly with
fingers. Repeat with remaining balls to make two more
"circles." 5. Bake one baking sheet at a time at 375F
(190C) for 9 to 11 minutes, or until set. DO NOT OVERBAKE.
Cool 5 to 8 minutes on baking sheet before removing cookie
on foil to countertop to cool completely.
6. For icing, combine icing sugar, shortening, milk and
corn syrup in bowl. Beat at medium speed of electric mixer
until smooth. If too thick, add additional milk, a few
drops at a time. If too thin, add additional icing sugar.
7. Divide icing into half. Place 1/2 into a large bowl.
Divide other half into three small bowls. Add yellow food
colour to one small bowl until desired shade is achieved
and mix well. Add equal amounts of yellow and blue food
colour to the second small bowl to make a green icing. Add
equal amounts of blue and red food colour to the third
small bowl to make a purple icing. Place coloured icings in
small resealable plastic bags. Seal. Cut tiny tip off
corner of each bag. Frost each cookie with white icing
using spatula or knife. Pipe coloured icings decoratively
over each "King cake." Makes: 3 "King cake" cookies
