I found this really tasty recipe on an online forum. It could not be easier to throw together (dough can be mixed by hand) and tastes much better than the usual Passover cookies. Dough can be frozen and recipe can be halved. Recipe makes 4 dozen small cookies on 2 cookie sheets.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
- Make sure the butter and cream cheese are softened to room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cookies mix together smoothly.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them firm up and develop their full flavor.
