For this I used my own sugar cookie recipe instead of buying a premixed. I also used foil on a cookie sheet when in the oven . and for the chocolate topping I just melted down some chocolate chips and swirled it over the cookies and topped with sprinkles. they are just as good as if i would have followed the Whole recipe here .
