These cookies are my husband’s favourite. They are light, a little bit chewy and soft, with an airy, cake-y texture, and despite the icing sugar everywhere, they are not overly sweet. They are wonderful at Christmas, when chocolate is everywhere, for a little something different, and are a big hit in the springtime because of how fresh they taste.
I always double this recipe when I make it, because having a half container of Cool-Whip around just means someone in the house is going to end up eating it with a spoon (not me, by the by…!) Why not have more cookies, instead?
And bonus? These are super easy to make! They’re a bit messy, and you’ll end up with dough on your fingers and icing sugar on your counters, but they’re worth it.
