COFFEE SPICES COOKIES

Who could resist these cookies with coffee, cinnamon and surrounded with chocolate bits?

Aromatic coffee combines the flavors of cinnamon and, nutmeg. The warm spices also give a seasonal feel to the cookie.

I used cinnamon and nutmeg for this batch and absolutely loved the accent that the spices in the blend gave to the finished cookies.

Satu yang menarik tentang American cookies kebanyakan cara membuatnya adalah cara "drop" atau pun"slice". Cookies ini adalah cara "slice" dimana doh akan didinginkan beberapa jam lalu dipotong dan dibakar. Cookies ini mempunyai perisa coffee dan rempah ratus. rempah yang digunakan ialah serbuk kayu manis dan serbuk pala cukup mantap dan sedap dihirup bersma kopi panas.
