These little cookies are so delectable! They are much easier to make than it may appear — the process is really very simple and quick. The result is a very gourmet-looking cookie. You can add just a pinch of cinnamon or ginger (or mint/fruit extracts) to the dough and can top with crystalized ginger, melted chocolates (I like to dip in white chocolate melted with a little lemon or orange extract, then sprinkle with a few more ground pecans). Delicious as is, but you can really make it your own, too! Thanks for sharing, Steve! I had misplaced my recipe (think I got it from the back of a Karo label long ago) and was so happy to find it posted here!

    Although delicate, these cookies have amazing flavor. The cookies are great as part of a cookie gift tray or at holiday gatherings. Be patient with the process of making these though. If you think that they won't solidify--give them a few minutes.
