Oh My...these are so sinful. I can see where they would make a great holiday cookie for gift-giving or cookie exchanges or anytime you want to do something a little special for someone other than just a standard cookie. I didn't have the swirled holiday morsels and so used the swirl combo of p.b. and chocolate. I can see where any type of swirled chip combo would work perfectly too. What a great idea Anna for a very decadent cookie treat. Made for Phototag.

These are out of this world GOOD!!! I didn't have the holiday morsels or semi sweet chocolate chips so I used the Nestle White Chocolate and Milk Chocolate chips. Made for my hubby for our 11th anniversary and Valentine's Day!. He loves them! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe! I will be keeping recipe in my favorites! :)
