Place in a microwave safe glass bowl white chocolate baking morsels and vegetable oil microwave 30 seconds mix and if not all melted add to microwave and additional 10 seconds do this in increments not to burn the chocolate. Slightly cool and place in a small zip lock bag close and clip a corner of the bag to create a piping bag drizzle white chocolate on cookies. Place cookies in the freezer for 5 minutes to harden back the chocolate. Let the cookies sit at room temperature before eating.
