Chocolate Lace Cookies

"I was looking for something a little different when making cookies this past Christmas. This fit the bill perfectly! They're light and crispy and you can see light through them, they're so lacy. The dough becomes stiffer as ingredients are added. I didn't use a mixer but you could and would need less arm muscles."

  1. The chocolate lace cookie is not truly a lace cookie and would perhaps better be named Chocolate-Chocolate Chip or Double Chocolate Chip. They bear a certain after-taste and are not appealing to the eye. On the plus side they cool faster and are less breakable than a lace cookie. I make almond lace cookies all the time. They truly resemble lace and vanish from sight in no time.
