I have made these cookies multiple times and they are AMAZING! The first time I had a little trouble with the dough being sticky, but I just dusted my cookie scoop and fingers in a little powdered sugar and I didnt have any issues! Last Christmas I made four batches of them and they were all gone in two days!!! They are totally worth the little amount of effort needed! so good with a cold glass of mild!

These cookies are wonderful! I put the dough in the refrigerator for about an hour before trying to roll in powdered sugar and it worked just fine.

Very yummy cookies ! The whole family loves them, I did add one extra cup of flour to make the dough more managable, and the cookies turned out wonderful.

The dough was sticky and kindof hard to manage, but if you put it in the freezer in between baking and putting it on the cookie sheet it works better....but once the dough was in the powdered sugar it was fine.

I made these for a bake sale-they went quick and the few ones I was able to try were very good and moist!

These are perfect! I read about gooey dough. I used my cookie scoop and had lightly dusted my hands with powdered sugar before rolling and not one bit of trouble. I forgot the chocolate chips on the 1st dozen and they're just as good without them. Just like chewy brownies in a cookie shape! Now if I can just find that self control in me somewhere.....
