Depending on preference, these crisp cookies can be dipped or drizzled in chocolate – either semi-sweet or white, which makes them a little fancier. However, for those who really like crisp cookies, they are great just as they come from the oven after the second baking. They’re also great for holiday cookie trays, or to enjoy with Santa after the kids have gone to bed.
