I finally made these tonight and I haven't yet put the chocolate coating or nuts on, but I have to say the plain cookies could now be my favorite cookie! I'm having some people over tomorrow, which is why I made them, so I'm going to do the chocolate/nuts on half of them for my cookie plate. I also used the pusher for my food processor to make them pretty on top - great tip!
I do have a question, though - your blog recipe varies slightly from the recipe in the Cookie Companion (not talking about the chocolate addition on the blog, just the basic recipe). Any reason? Any taste difference between the two? Thanks for the best recipe!
Any variation between blog vs. recipe is simply my lack of organizational ability. I'd say follow the recipe, since it includes ingredient amounts, and the blog doesn't. If it's a question of when/how to add things, then follow either, since it won't make a difference. Good luck - PJH
