Chocolate Brownie Cookies
Ingredients
- Chocolate Brownie Cookies
- These cookies are like fudgey brownie cookies. To decorate and make these cookies even more decadent, you can melt white chocolate and put it in a baggie and drizzle the chocolate over the cookies and then in the opposite direction. For Christmas cookies, you can sprinkle finely crushed candy canes over the warm white chocolate decoration. These cookies freeze well.
