2 eggs

If necessary, microwave at 10 second intervals until chocolate is completely melted when stirred. Stir cream into chocolate, then powdered sugar; mix well. Stir in bourbon until well blended. Let stand at room temperature until completely cooled.

Transfer chocolate mixture to small plastic food storage bag. Cut very tiny corner off bag; drizzle decoratively over cookies. Let stand until chocolate is set. 6.Store tightly covered at room temperature or freeze cookies up to 3 months.
