I'm continually experimenting with new ingredients. Hoping to find a versatile cookie for all seasons, I set out to create an easily stored, rich cookie with distinct cocoa flavor. This recipe can be modified to add color or flavor to your chocolates for any occasion.

Melt chocolate in double boiler and use candle warmer to keep warm. Dip cookies in chocolate, using a spoon to pick the cookie up out of the melted chocolate and then place cookie quickly onto a fork over the chocolate and tap off excess chocolate allowing it to flow through the fork tines. Then place cookie on parchment paper to dry.
