These are the easiest cookies.
Slice and bake sugar cookies then press a chocolate coin in the center of each. I love the contrast of the crisp chocolate and the cookie. Really good.

Time for a short song….and it’s a recipe!
And a metal rock out sweet song. :)
“And while we were singing the candles were burning low
one for each night as they shed a sweet light,
they remind us of years long ago,
one for each night as they shed a sweet light,
they remind us of years long ago…”
Sweet, right?
