Expert Tips

Place food directly on Reynolds® Parchment Paper and bake as directed. Treats will bake evenly and release from paper with ease. Plus, because you're baking right on the paper, clean-up is a breeze.

This recipe was one of fifteen winners in the 2007 Mix It Up with Betty! Cookie Mix Recipe Contest. More than $10,000 was awarded!

Look for the hot chocolate tablets in the Hispanic section of your supermarket.

Use a #70 or 1-tablespoon spring-loaded ice cream scoop to make quick work of dropping the cookie dough. Using a scoop also ensures cookies will be the same size and will bake the same length of time.

    I made these for a Mexican themed tailgate party. Thought I would have prob. finding the Mexican Hot Choc mix but found it at super store in Mexican food isle; also used margarine instead butter (since earlier comment indicated this would help make them softer). I did use the bottom of a glass to gently push down cookie (helped them cook flatter). The 2nd batch I did not roll in cin/sugar mixture I just sprinkled this on to cut down on the sweetness. Cook only 10 minutes and maybe even 9 by the time you put last try in oven. Very good cookie for a change of the usual.
