I first tried my now-favorite hot fudge recipe for these cookies, as they call for hot fudge. Add the hot fudge either at room temp or cold, not hot.
I used to make these with white chocolate and raspberry chocolate chips. Remember Hershey's raspberry chocolate chips? I don't think they still make those, but I found some raspberry chips on Nuts.com. I have those on hand for later, but this time around, I used their thier mixed chocolate chips (milk, dark, white, peanut butter, and raspberry). I loved the results!

Hello! How do you keep the cookies from falling apart? Ive made these for many years and loved them but they would always fall apart. So I stopped making them but are tempted to try again. Do you have any tips?
Thanks so much!
