Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix the flour, salt, baking powder and pepper in a bowl. Set aside. Grease 2 cookie sheets with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Cream the remaining butter. Gradually add the sugar and continue beating until incorporated. Add the egg, vanilla and 1 tablespoon milk. Add the flour mixture all at once. Beat until smooth.

  2. Step 2

    Drop a heaping teaspoonful of dough onto the cookie sheets. Shape it into thin strips, 2 inches long. Bake until golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.

  3. Step 3

    Place a rack on top of a cookie sheet. Set aside.

  4. Step 4

    Melt the chocolate and milk together in a double boiler over low heat. Stir until blended.

  5. Step 5

    Dip the tip of each cookie into the melted chocolate. Lay each cookie on the rack. Refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 10 minutes.
