Add the egg yolk, milk and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, and beat to combine.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder and salt, mix to combine, and add it slowly to the wet ingredients. Beat on high until a thick dough is formed. The dough will be very thick.
Take a tablespoon of dough and make it into a ball. Flatten the ball of dough, and press one side down into Valentine sprinkles of your choosing. Place it sprinkle side up on a greased or lined baking sheet.
Repeat with the rest of the dough.
Bake the cookies for 10 minutes.
Remove them from the oven, take them off of the hot baking sheet, and rest for a few minutes.
Press an unwrapped Hershey Hugs candy into the center of each cookie.
Place the cookies into the fridge for a few minutes to keep the Hershey Hug from melting on the cookie.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
