These cookies are crisp, rich, and extra chocolatey.
Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies
Cream cheese gives sugar cookies a marvelous flavor. It also makes the dough softer and stickier. The dough needs to be cold when these are rolled out; if it begins to stick, return it to the refrigerator for a while.
This dough is used in Shining Star Cookies.
Chocolate Cherry Five Layer Bars
Chocolate and cherries flavor this luscious variation on a classic recipe. I like these cookies best with a combination of maraschino and dried cherries. The maraschino cherries lend color; the dried cherries add a delightful tartness.
