    These were very good! I dipped mine in crushed up candy canes before baking. The candy cane pieces mostly melted into the cookies, and gave them a wonderful peppermint cocoa taste. - 12/11/12

    Tried these for the first time with Yenduchaka's modification. Yum! The first batch was too sticky to remove easily, so I only dipped the tops in crushed candy & that worked much nicer. Used Tbsp, though; a flat tsp of cookie was unrealistic & would have burned to a tiny crisp. Yield 65/doubled. - 12/17/12
