Directions

• Set oven to 375F
• Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat, this is important.
• Mix all the ingredients together and blend the dough well.
• Using 1/4 teaspoon as a measure make small balls and place them on the silpat lined baking sheet, a couple of inches apart.. Bake for for 5 minutes until they are golden around. Let stand a few seconds before removing from pan to a cooling rack. Youll need a very thin spatula to do this. The cookies harden as they cool.
• When the cookies are completely cool, flip them over and match them up in pairs. Lay them out on a piece of waxed paper.
• Put the chocolate in a glass measuring cup and heat in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between until just melted.
• Spread a small amount of chocolate onto the bottom cookie, and then top it with another. You can use a small spoon and spreading knife, but do it very gently as the cookies shatter easily. Let the cookies sit to harden, or put them in the refrigerator. Once they are filled and chilled, they will be a little more sturdy In fact they taste great straight from the fridge.
