They are amazing, and were very easy to make. I made these on Monday to give as a Pesach gift to the immediate family prior to seder. They are amazing, and were very easy to make.

Great mix of cookie types, and the chocolate cookies look really, really decadent. I agree that Alprose is great, but have you tried Schmerling 70% bittersweet? Excellent. Great idea to use hazelnut with chocolate--I love that combination. I just made Beacon Hill cookies (Alice Medrich version) and used pecans, but hazelnuts would have been even better. There is something about hazelnuts and chocolate that is uber sophisticated. Shoshana: that cookie plate is fab looking!!

I know that my family is partial to the old standards too so I often have to make both. @Ruth H., I hope you enjoy the new additions.

Give my love to your family. @Rebecca, I would love to come just to see you all, but it is a bit far to get there before pesach. Give my love to your family.

Chocolate coatings made with vegetable oil (like many passover chocolate) should behave like tempered chocolate without having to do anything special, so depending on what you are doing you may just have to melt them. @mindy trotta, Hi Mindy, The chocolate hazelnut cookie recipe should be up in a day or two but I am happy to email it to you if you want it before that, just send me an email.

Now, can we get the recipe for the Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies. I have adapted a non-Passover recipe for Passover, but still would love to see what you've come up with! And thanks for the heads-up regarding the K for P chocolate. Now I know why tempering the darn thing is so difficult--not really chocolate! Delicious!
