I have been making these for 24 years! They are one of the must have items for my family at Christmas. I double the cookie batter and make one recipe of the fudge filling. I put the filling in a zip lock bag and cut off one corner. I tried this after trying many ways to get the filling in the cookie cup and it works best for me.<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"12\/06\/2016 16:21","GUID":"4f0725d91b6441ee9f691cb07029e24c","MemberId":1066255,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Beans57","SubmittedDate":"12\/06\/2016 16:20"},{"Comment":"

A blessing of a find! This was such an easy cookie to make & it tastes great. I used my 1" hand-held fruit scoop to make the balls, then I used my cookie press gun with a large icing tip to fill the cookies. Alot easier & neater than using the sandwich bag with the tip cut off. I doubled the batch to use up the extra filling, but I also cut up some of my left-over Halloween snicker bars, then put the filling on top. I also still had some left-over filling, so I guess I'll make 1 more batch. Tasted so-o good.<\/p>","CommentId":17,"DateRated":"11\/15\/2014 11:46","GUID":"d80adab869054aad8fe57f265583acea","MemberId":5912806,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"cherylyoung","SubmittedDate":"11\/15\/2014 11:26"},{"Comment":"
