So was that a test to see if anyone had a good one? And you had it all along? ;)
 
My grandmother taught me how to make cookies with that recipe when I was a little girl! Only her's was called "Brown Eyed Susan". I'll have to get out my recipes and see how close yours is to hers!

I make it every Christmas and enjoy the memories! She's still alive at 96 but not doing well right now. Love her to pieces!!

1. How do I make sure the chocolate center stays gooey in the butter cookies?

The key to keeping the chocolate center gooey is to make sure the cookies are not overbaked. Bake them for the recommended time and then check them. The edges should be slightly golden, but the center should be soft and slightly undercooked. Let them cool completely on the baking sheet before removing them to a cooling rack.

2. Can I use a different type of chocolate for the center of the cookies?

Yes, you can use any type of chocolate you prefer for the center of the cookies. Milk, dark, or white chocolate will all work well. You can also add in other mix-ins like chopped nuts or dried fruit for added flavor and texture.

3. How long do these cookies stay fresh?

If stored in an airtight container, these cookies will stay fresh for up to 5 days at room temperature. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months and thaw them at room temperature when ready to eat.

4. Can I use margarine instead of butter in this recipe?

We recommend using butter for the best flavor and texture in these cookies. However, you can use margarine as a substitute if needed. Just make sure it is at room temperature and has a similar fat content to butter.

5. Do I need to chill the cookie dough before baking?

No, there is no need to chill the cookie dough before baking. However, if the dough seems too soft, you can refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle. Just make sure to let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and baking.
