I really think that chocolate dough would need to be altered somehow before I'd even consider making these again. Maybe I'll be brave again some day! Julie, if Quinn finds out there's not a picture with a recipe, he's all for making it so *we* can have a picture of it. Good for the blogging business, I suppose. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Evelin, thanks for the encouragement. I really must try to deal better with failures. Eliza, I feel the same way. I tried some other shapes, but I just lost interest after the wreaths were a no-go.

Failing is normal from time to time, I know it from personal experience:) The cookie looks fab, but there are probably better batters for making the cookies, since yours was not very cooperative.

I laughed about your husband's ambition for you...if my husband sees a an incredible food photo, he's sold on a recipe. If there's no picture, his interest definitely declines.

Good to know that it wasn't just me! Thanks, Patricia. You're very kind. I am, unfortunately, not one to take failure well. Quinn says I would have made a terrible scientist. :-) JEP, both of those cheesecakes are wonderful! In fact, I'm about to make another Pecan Pie Cheesecake today for tomorrow's festivities.
