After the cookies bake, let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then carefully transfer them (I use a metal spatula/turner for this) to a smaller baking sheet or a plate. Press a candy cane kiss ever-so-lightly in the center of each cookie. Immediately transfer the cookies to the freezer for 10 minutes. The warm cookies help the candies adhere, and the cold freezer temperature keeps them from melting.
Awesome recipe! To combat the dryness I substituted one tablespoon of butter with applesauce. The dough was just sticky enough for the sprinkles and sugar to stick. I rolled all the batter into balls at once and then rolled them in the sprinkles and sugar. By the time about 1/3 had been coated, the dough balls were drying out just enough that the sprinkles stopped sticking as well. I started rolling each one between my hands for 10 seconds or so first and that fixed it. Love how they turned out!

It proved an immediate and resounding success both for its patriotic values and for the medieval inspiration of the subject, typical of the Romantic taste of the time; the public was enthusiastic about the daring
kiss but also recognised the patriotic message enshrined in the colours: the red stockings, green lapel on the cloak and blue and white gown allude to the flags of Italy and France.
Hayez painted other versions of it, now in various European collections.
