Would make this again.
These were fantastic! I topped them with a dollop of cream cheese maple syrup frosting - you can reheat for a couple of seconds and the frosting perfectly melts. Delicious! As an fyi, not sure if I didn't make the cookies big enough (they were a perfect "2 bites"), but I ended up with 9 dozen instead of the 5 dozen. five stars

These cookies were a 'huge' hit with the people I work with. I didn't put any glaze on them, but the next time I make these (which will be very soon) I'm going to experiment with some different glazes rather than relying on the chocolate. I doubled the recipe since I have so many people I need to give cookies to, and it doubled well. Also survived several weeks in the freezer without losing any taste. These are definitely on the cookie list for next year. YUM!!! five stars

Great cookies! They take a while but they are most defiantly worth it! A good idea is to make half with chocolate chips and half without but with cream cheese frosting. The cream cheese frosting is to die for. DELICIOUS! five stars
