These cookies were delicious and so pretty too! They were easy to make, although not the fastest recipe. But the result was worth it. I ended up with a beautiful dessert plate. I had some white chocolate left from something else so I drizzled a bit of it on top of the dark chocolate. Thanks Dawn for a cookie recipe that goes into my permanent recipe book!
