Excellent cookie, very easy to make and the taste is great. I made it one of my Christmas cookies, snowball.

This is one of the Best Holiday Cookies recipes that I made. My husband loves them. In fact, I usually have to make an extra batch each year because he has eaten most of them before I can get them wrapped for give away to friends. But then again, I do understand why he does it. They are great!!!

Want a little more sweetness to this cookie. Put a hersey's kiss in the middle of it. The best right out of the oven when the cookie is warm and the chocolate is gooey. YUM!

This recipe happens to be in my Grandmother's European cookbook, she's Czech and Polish and we make them all the time. They are simple and delicious, even my dad can make them on his own!

Made these for my son's wedding reception and received so many complements. Some folks wanted to take some home and asked for the recipe. Simple and quick to make with my kitchenaid.

Made for our memorial day BBQ! When you roll the cookies initially, they will be moist (that is what makes the powdered sugar stick!)...but then before serving, I lay them on a platter and sprinkle them with additional sugar for a fresh look. YUM!
