These sound delicious! I'm our official family Christmas cookie baker, and I'm always looking for new recipes to try....I'm bookmarking this one. Is copha hard to find? I've never heard of it before. If I can't find it, is there something you can recommend as a substitute? Thanks!

Hi CM

I don't know if Copha is available in the US, but unfortunately you can't substitute copha. I heard someone have tried a melted chocolate. good luck.
