Who can resist a tasty cookie piled high with a creamy mixture packed full of sweetness. And to top it off the chocolate drizzled on top is the finishing touch! Very good cookies!!

OH MY GOODNESS, PEOPLE - RUN, do not WALK, to the store and pick up what you need to make these delightful little gems...decadent, dreamy, delicious little bites of ccokie, cream cheese, chocolate - what more could you ask from a cookie?!? Michelle, these are EXCELLENT, and I'm TRYING not to eat them all - don't know if they'll survive until Monday so I can take them in to work...you are the best!!!! Thank you for sharing another great recipe with us...hugs, Krum

Made these again tonight, Michellem - what's so funny is that my husband normally likes 2 kinds of desserts...anything made of chocolate or fruit - not big on cream cheese or white cookies. I wish you could have seen the expression on his face when he bit into one of these...priceless!! He loved them - taking them to work next week for his office, and saving some for Erin to take to a friend's house next weekend... these cookies IMPRESS, and are sooooo easy to make!!!!
PS - I left out the coconut and pecans in the filling this time, due to some peoples allergies, etc - I prefer the coconut and pecan addition, but excellent either way.
