2 ounces bittersweet chocolates, chopped
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup instant dissolving (fruit/berry) sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cup all purpose flour
1 pinch salt
1 cup finely chopped Toblerone bar

1 cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 300 F. In heatproof bowl over saucepan of hot (not boiling) water, melt chocolate, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let cool. Meanwhile, in bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy. Stir in chocolate and vanilla. Add flour and salt; stir until blended. Mix in 1 cup fineley chopped Toblerone bar. Form into 1 1/2" balls and place on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper. Press a 1/2" chunch of Toblerone bar into the top of each cookie. Bake 30 minutes or until firm to the touch. Remove from oven and let cool for 2 minutes, then remove to wire racks to cool completely. Sift powdered sugar on top of the cookies to create "snow."

Would make this again.
This cookie is a good, rich cookie. I've made these cookies a few times. I always find the toblerone melts, which defeats the purpose of the "mountain" part of the cookie. I think the next batch I make, I'll cook them through mostly, then add the toblerone for the last few minutes of baking. I've also tried substituting semi-sweet chocolate, but it made the cookie more crisp. I'll keep with the bittersweet. four stars
