- Slice the cookie dough into 1/4 inch slices. Place cookies on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes. Remove from pans to a wire rack to cool.
- Melt chocolate in microwave for about 1 minutes. Stir at 30 seconds to go. Check every 10 seconds after that to see if it is melted. My microwave did it in a minute. Your microwave might be done sooner or later depending on the power of your microwave.
- Dip the cookies in the chocolate. Shake off to remove extra chocolate. Place on waxed paper. Sprinkle with jimmies.
