These are so rich and decadent that I like to drop them by the teaspoon making them just big enough for a couple bites. I love to make a variety of very small cookies and serve them throughout the holidays. These will be sure to be on the next holiday plate.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong - but these are too runny to even think about setting into anything. Anyone got any suggestions? I'd be happy to give it another go, but can't think what I could possibly have done wrong. Please send me a message if you have ideas! I'm too frustrated to keep it on my try soon list!
