AMARETTO CHIP COOKIES



Amaretto Chip Cookies image

These are similar to Recipe #161166 but I believe I have change it up enough to warrant a new post. These are a delicious change of pace from plain ol' chocolate chip cookies, and I love to make them as a treat for Christmas gift tins! Good luck staying out of the dough--it tastes even better than the finished product! ETA: I am editing the recipe following Katzen's review--this year I think I have gotten it right :).
