Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Melt the baking bar in a small pan over low heat, stirring constantly. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, stir the flour, baking soda and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  • In a separate small bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer at medium speed for 30 seconds. Add 1 cup sugar and beat until well combined. Beat in the melted baking bar, egg, buttermilk, and vanilla. Add the flour mixture; beat until well mixed. Cover, chill dough at least one hour, or until easy to handle.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Shape the dough into 1 inch balls; roll in additional sugar. Place 2-inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until bottoms are light brown. Remove and cool on wire rack.
  • Meanwhile, in saucepan, cook and stir chocolate chips and shortening over low heat until melted. Drizzle over cookies and sprinkle with crushed candy.

Notes

  • No buttermilk in your fridge? You may substitute milk plus ¾ teaspoon of lemon juice to get the same result.
  • Chocolate chips and shortening can just as easily be melted in a pyrex dish or measuring cup in the microwave. Heat a little at a time, stirring every 30 seconds, until the mixture is melted and smooth.

    Can the dough be refrigerated for a couple of days?

      If you do that, I’d suggest keeping it in an airtight container. My fear would be drying it out.
