Chocolate Chips
I made embroidery French Knots randomly placed throughout the cookie.
Batting
Cut 2 18-inch circles. Lay one cookie facing down then place both eight inch circles on that cookie.
Sew the both eight inch circles to the inside of the cookie (go only through the inside loop of the cookie).
Once that is done, place the other cookie on top of the eight inch circles (with chocolate chips facing up).
Mattress stitch them together.
