Chestnut Cookies

Delicious cookies for true sweet tooth! Cookies are very crumbly. It's very easy to cook it, and there are a lot of design options. Instead of dark chocolate, the glaze can be prepared on milk or even white chocolate, only then it is better to reduce the amount of sugar in the cookies a little, otherwise it will be too sweet. For sprinkling, you can take not only nuts, but also coconut chips or crumbled waffles. Help yourself!
