A five star all the way! A wonderful addition to the holiday tray - and for those times you want to add something special along with coffee or tea when you have guests. Love the addition of the orange zest and the mini chocolate chips. Suspect if one did not have the mini chocolate chips they would still be great! Highly recommend these to any who are looking for holiday cookies. Thank you - another andypandy winner. Made for 'Let's Party' 2009.
