Chill in the refrigerator for at least 60 minutes and leave overnight.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking trays with parchment paper and set aside.

Use a small tablespoonful of biscuit dough to measure out 1 ½ tablespoons and roll it into a ball. Repeat until all the dough has been used.

Roll the dumplings in granulated sugar until light and evenly coated.
Place the biscuits on a baking tray with at least 1 ½ inches between them (usually 12 fit on a standard large baking tray).

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until the biscuits are firm, puffy and slightly cracked.

Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately place a sweet frozen chocolate kiss in the middle of each biscuit and gently press down on the biscuit.

Allow the biscuits to cool for 10 minutes on the baking tray, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Let the biscuits cool for at least 3 hours to get the best texture!

ENJOY!
