This recipe really didn't work for me. I didn't get anywhere near 6 dozen cookies from it; I barely wound up with 4 dozen. I'm giving them as Christmas gifts and have to skimp because there aren't that many to go around. Also, this recipe doesn't mention food coloring but even four drops of regular green (not gel) coloring wasn't enough. My cookies are a very, very pale green. They do taste good, though. I dipped them in melted dark chocolate and then chopped walnuts. And for those who can't eat nuts I dipped them in Wilton's red, green and white nonpareils.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":2,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2010-01-11","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"PurpleToast"},"reviewBody":"For many years I have made a \"spritz\" cookie similar to this, but dipped the chocolate in toasted sliced almonds.
