Added chocolate chips and might follow the recipe for chocolatey chocolate cookies in ATK next time, but still coat them with powdered sugar - Hubby will still think they are close enough to wagon wheels.

Didn't have nuts this time around, will add them next time, I think it will give them the crunch I need! Great cookies.

This is a good cookie - addictive with the chocolate and walnuts. I think it would work well with almond slivers, which I might try next time. Grandkids coming over for cookies, so they will be the testers between walnuts and almonds!

The hardest thing about making these cookies was keeping our youngest son entertained while the dough chilled LOL! They're really nice tasting - not too sweet or too bland. My daughter took these to school as a treat for her class and the teacher asked me for the recipe to hand out to the kids because the kids all want their parents to make these...said they were like brownie cookies :)

These cookies are a must eat!!I am so glad someone else had this recipe, I lost mine that has been used in my family for years. It is probably the best cookie ever created, everyone that has tried them and this recipe loves them. Thank you.

I have not made this recipe yet. MY aunt used to make these cookies for us when we were growing up. Now we make them for our kids. The only difference in the recipe is we use 4 squares of Baker's unsweetened chocolate and 2 tsp of baking powder and no salt. I will have to try your recipe and see if there is a difference.. When we make these cookies they do not last for long. They are one of the best cookies I have ever had.

Wow, these are great. I followed the recipe exactly, except I left out the nuts (didn't have any) and used 1 tsp of almond extract instead of the 2 tsp of vanilla. I was out of vanilla also. The almond extract gave them a great flavor, and they taste just like brownies. The texture is fantastic, chewy but not mooshy. Next time I will try them with the nuts. This is a very good chocolate cookie that my friends and family just love!

These cookies are fabulous. I too have grown up with them every year at Christmas! I try to get them out of the oven when they look just barely done to be more chewy.
