These were relaly easy to make and tasted great. I think next time I make them I will do as another reviewer suggested and make small round cookies and dip helf in the chocolate. I found it really hard to dip both sides. Also I used a nut topping instead of walnuts since I don't really like them. These were the first of all my holiday cookies to disappear.

Very easy to make and tasty too. For half of the cookies, I just dipped one end into the chocolate; for the other half of the cookies, I just left plain. Tasty, either way.

I'd give it more Stars if I could! These were by far the BEST Cookies I have ever made, and far better than store-bought! Just make sure you really wait for them to cool completely before removing them from the Baking Sheet! Also, after dipping the ends in the Chocolate, I sprinkled the Nuts on top rather than rolling the Logs in them. There are so many other Variations of this I must try, there are so many Possibilities! Update: I made another batch last night, but I made them flat and dipped half in melted white Chocolate. Today I made them with dried Cranberries instead of Chocolate Chips and Orange Extract instead of the Vanilla. Then I also added a little Orange Extract in the melted Chocolate! Yum!

Wow did these ever take a while to get down, but oh so worth it. I didn't know how thick to make the 2.5 inch "logs" and so there was some muddling around - finally realized I only had like 29 rolls, so had to go back and re-roll the logs! Baking them was just fine - no problem - they were slightly brown and I let them cool and they were nice and crisp - no trouble with breakage at all. The problem came with dipping - I'm not used to doing this and it took some commitment to get it just so. I confess my first batch I just dipped one side. The other problem was my walnut pieces were too big out of the bag - and when I went to pulse them in the food processor, they then became too small. This time (tomorrow) I'm going to hit them with a mallet and try to get them just right! To make a long story longer, hubby ate one cookie and promptly asked me to make a batch for his work!!! He has NEVER asked me to do such a thing in all our years together (15). Tomorrow I'm going to use half chocolate dipping ends and half peanut butter for dipping. Yumillee!!!!

These are very good, but also very hard to work with. The dough seemed fine to mold, and shape, but when they were done, they fell apart so easily. I might try them in another form instead of logs.

I was concerned reading reviews on breaking, texture, etc. I made them per recipe (included 2 tbls brown sugar) and they were FABULOUS! 10 minutes was perfect, I was able to use a spatula to move them immediately off the cookie sheet with no problems. These are my new favorite cookie!!

These were GREAT! I don't know why everyone has problems with them falling apart, my only suggestion would be to cook them until they are starting to brown ( just slightly) and let them COOL all the way before dipping. I had cub scouts make these they were alot of fun!

Great cookies. Make sure you handle with care when dipping in chocolate because they break easily.

i would like to have given 5stars, but found we needed to add a splash of milk to dough to get logs to hold shape. no other problems, recipe was easy and delicious. my mother gives 5stars but she didn't bake them, just ate them. i will absolutely make these again and especially for parties and events. a very good recipe!

Excellent, excellent recipe. The cookies are buttery and crisp. I modified it a bit by adding 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and white and dark chocolate chips. My only concern is that the log shaped cookies spread a little more than I desired. This made dipping the cookies impossible, but they are just as good with a chocolate drizzle. I will definitely use this recipe again!

Excellent cookies, very easy to make. Use high quality ingredients and you'll have amazing shortbread. I rolled mine in chopped almonds instead of walnuts and they were very good. I'll definitely use this recipe again.

I've been trying to make a good shortbread cookie for my New Zealand guy and this wasn't it. Dough had to be refrigerated every 9 cookies (so that they were "rollable"). I thought they were kind of bland. This was definitely not my favorite shortbread cookie recipe.

Something apparently went awry. My bars were so crumbly, I couldn't pick them up. I tried to dip a portion of one and the weight of the chocolate tore it apart right over the double boiler.
