Separate dough into small balls. Place in greased trays.

These will make large cookies, about 4 inches in diameter.

Place the chocolate cookies about 2 ½ inches apart.

Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand.

Sprinkle chocolate sprinkles or place a chocolate kiss in the center of each cookie.
