Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside.

Side Note: The following step is a Cook’s Illustrated tip – Creating a jagged surface on each dough ball gives the finished cookies an attractive appearance. Instructions belowRoll some dough into a small ball. Hold the dough ball with the fingertips of both hands and pull into 2 equal halves. Rotate the halves 90 degrees and, with jagged surfaces facing up, join the halves together at the base, again forming a single ball, being careful not to smooth the dough’s uneven surface. Place the formed dough balls on the baking sheet, jagged surface up, spacing them 2 1/2 inches apart. Repeat with remaining dough.
Place into the oven and bake until the cookies are light golden brown, the outer edges start to harden, and the centers are still soft and puffy, about 15-18 minutes, making sure to rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking time. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool.
Place the dark chocolate melting wafers and one teaspoon of the coconut oil in a glass bowl then put it into the microwave for 30 seconds. Remove and stir then place back into the microwave for 10 seconds. Remove and stir then place back into the microwave for 10 seconds. Remove and stir until completely melted. If needed, continue cooking for 10-second increments. Be careful not to overcook the chocolate!
Dip bottoms of cookies in chocolate and lay (chocolate side down) directly on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
Place the white chocolate melting wafers and 1/4 teaspoon of the coconut oil in a glass bowl then put it into the microwave for 30 seconds. Remove and stir then place back into the microwave for 10 seconds. Remove and stir then place back into the microwave for 10 seconds. Be careful not to overcook the chocolate! Spoon melted chocolate in a zip lock bag and do a small snip in the bottom corner of the bag.
Drizzle some white chocolate back and forth on each cookie. Place the baking sheet of cookies in the refrigerator to set for a few minutes. Serve and enjoy.
Store cookies layered between parchment paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator (so the chocolate doesn't melt). Enjoy!
