I was looking for a "chocolate/peppermint" cookie to add to my Christmas tray. Instead I got a cookie that overwhelmingly tastes of honey, I switched from a peppermint topping to Reeses peanutbutter pieces, cuz what goes better with honey than peanutbutter. By the way it makes about24-30 cookies. I may try to fiddle with this using sugar instead of honey and adding more chocolate, since you couldn't taste the chocolate at all.
