Brownie Cookie Rings
Have you ever had a brownie that became a cookie? Or perhaps you have seen the two merge?
Well, if you haven't now's your chance to make one that will fulfill your desire for the taste of a brownie, but with the crunch of a cookie.
This cookie is popular in our family during the holidays because our boys love chocolate and it reminds them of a mini wreath. It's fun to look at and fun to eat.
The glaze is delicate and a great finishing touch. It gives the cookie an elegant decorative feature.
To make this cookie more 'child friendly', you could add green and red candy or chocolate drops.
This holiday cookie was created for my eight nieces and nephews and my three boys. It's easy for them to participate in making the icing and applying it. All I say is, “Just drizzle!”
