Nuts-About-You Cookie Sticks
Why I Love This Recipe
Here is a fancy meal finale that couldn't be quicker to whip up. Start with purchased cookies, dip in a rich, creamy chocolate and peanut-butter coating, dust with nuts or sprinkles, and serve them with your favorite after-dinner beverage. Make several batches to serve a group or use as a hostess gift.
