Chocolate Chili Stars/Chocolate Ginger Stars (Cookies)

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   When dough is thoroughly chilled, flour a work surface lightly and roll each disk out to 1/4-inch thickness. Using star shaped cookie cutters, cut the cookies out of the dough.

3. 3

   Arrange the cookies on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper and bake for 12 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool thoroughly.

4. 4

   Place the chocolate into a small, deep, microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove and stir well so that all the chocolate is melted.

5. 5

   Dip one half of each chocolate star into the melted chocolate, or leave the cookies on the parchment paper and spoon the melted chocolate over one side.

6. 6

   Take a small pinch of cinnamon and sprinkle onto the white part of the cookie and across the chocolate in a line. Repeat with the cayenne pepper. Allow the chocolate to set and get hard before serving.

7. 7

   Alternatively, sprinkle candied ginger on the wet chocolate and allow the chocolate to get hard before serving.
