This was the best cookie that I have had. And so worth the tiny bite. Soft, chewy, and packed with amazing flavor. They baked perfectly and stayed soft.
I made this on a whim one Sunday morning when friends called and said they planned to drop by in the afternoon. It makes a lot, and I was able to serve our friends and the neighbors a casual supper. The seasonings and green chilies give the meat a spicy kick and taste fantastic with cool sour cream and fresh salsa.
