• 4. Divide dought into 2 equal parts. Shape each half into 7-inch long roll by 1/2 inch wide (I generally use the width of 2 fingers).
• 5. Use a sheet either of Parchment Paper or Wax Paper for each roll of dough.
• 6. Roll dough (it will be sticky though, may use a little extra flour for rolling dough) into chocolate sprinkles, pressing lightly.
• 7. Wrap tightly. Refrigerate at least 1-1/2 hours or more.
• 8. Pull cookie dough out of refrigerator. Heat oven to 375 F.
• 9. Cut cookie dough roll into 1/4-inch slices.
• 10. Place slices 1/2 inch apart on ungreased baking sheet or stoneware.
• 11. Bake 6 to 9 minutes or until set. Cool on Rack.
• 12. BAKER'S NOTE: May substitute Starbucks Mocha powder, instead of instant coffee. Added Bonus - add Mini-Chocolate Chips to dough. YUM!
• 13. BAKER'S NOTE: Instead of rolling dough into a log, use a Small Scoop (1 T measurement) and scooping your cookie dough into balls, then roll into chocolate sprinkles. May take 2 or 3 minutes more to bake though! Enjoy!! :)
