While it's been around for years, this recipe remains enjoyable to this day. A co-worker prepared these at a cookie exchange a while back...they were the biggest hit of the party.

I love love LOVE these cookies :D They are delicious! The first time I saw them in the book I knew I wanted to make them. I could almost taste them already! I would absolutely make them again. I made square ones and circular ones like in the picture. Instead of putting melted chocolate in the middle, I put one chocolate chip (not melted) in the middle right after the cookies were taken out of the oven. They melted from the warmth of the cookie but it was easier and faster than than melting chocolate and then pouring it on top. I like it better too because it isn't so much chocolate then. Also I took a chocolate chip and put it gently against the rim of the cookie and slid it around making a circle on the cookie. They are a bit crumbly, but when you freeze them, then take them out of the freezer they aren't as crumbly and they tasted a bit different and really good! I just love these cookies and actually don't mind the chalkiness. The poppy seeds are small so you don't notice eating them (as in the biting), but you taste them and it tastes great! These are perfect for bringing to a Christmas get-together or anything at all :)
