CHOCOLATE CHIP MELTAWAYS

My FIL sent me an email with about 200 cookie recipe links. This one sounds very interesting! I'm guessing at the prep time. **UPDATE 1/17/09** I finally made these and I have to say, they are pretty good! Sort of a sugar cookie with chocolate chips. DD loves them. I used a mini scoop and think I got about 5 doz (didn't count them).
