"Made these using a cookie press for holiday cookies - they were a big hit! Very simple, though the dough was a bit sticky to work with. Still delicious and definitely worth the effort!"

"I came across this recipe a few years ago and have been making them every Christmas. My daughter, my niece and I all LOVE THEM. They are the best chocolate cookies I've ever tasted. They're so rich and delicious. Last year we became vegans and I got rid of all of my recipes. I was so happy to find this online, because we're breaking our "vegan" lifestyle for Christmas Eve!!"

"I was able to get 4 and half dozen cookies out of this recipe using a Williams-Sonoma Cookie Press. I used the 5 point star and the Christmas tree plates. These baked up very well with good flavor."

"I make this receipe every year for Christmas and I get great reviews everytime. I even make a special plate of these cookies for one of my friends because he loves them so much. I always make the chocolate logs and dip each end with melted chocolate and cover the chocolate with nuts or colored candy sprinkles. They look lovely on a cookie platter."

"I have made this simply, delicious recipe many times to rave reviews from my family and friends. I use the Maraschino cherry version except I change it up a bit. I use a cookie scoop to make a round ball on the cookie sheet, then I place a well-drained half of a Maraschino cherry on each cookie BEFORE baking."
