good in theory... but it seems like there are some things missing from the recipe. It says at the top, "Chill: 2min." but then never mentions chilling in the directions. My end result was not cohesive at all, all the cookie balls melted into one mass on the cookie sheet and then crumbled apart when I tried separating them after waiting a couple of minutes for them to cool. Won't be trying this one again.
