It says butter and egg from the package directions, but there are two sets. One for drop cookies and one for cutouts. Which one do I use?

I would like to think that you could stuff a Rolo into the sugar cookie cup. And then sprinkle with chopped pecans! If not - than shoot a little caramel sauce (versus melting them) on top of the choc chips in the sugar cookie coup. If it is supposed to be an "easy recipe" - I want it to stay just that... and NOT time consuming. Hmmm... In fact, I think I will try that one out tonight!
