I thought they were great, loved the filling, decreased flour amount, increased cocoa for chocolatier taste. Only one complaint, dropping on cookie sheet by tablespoon full was too large, spread out too much, so I made them smaller by the teaspoon full. But I did love them and ate them all up!

I have been making these for years. My cousin gave me the recipe and said "watch out they will be gone in a flash". And they were. My kids love them, my co-workers beg for them and my husband can eat too many at one time!!! Just enough chocolate and the creamy filling is wonderful.
