Wrap well and chill in fridge for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.

Preheat oven to 350*. Roll out to ¼” thickness, cut into desired shapes, put on parchment-lined cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until the tops are dry and the bottoms look even. Transfer to a rack to cool.

To decorate, dip ½ of each cookie in dark chocolate and sprinkle with walnuts, nibs, and a dried cherry. Let set until chocolate hardens and serve.
