Happy National Cookie Day! Whether you like the warmth and sweetness of homemade cookies or you like the traditional Oreo, everyday is a good day when cookies are part of the dessert menu. There are the usual cookie flavours like chocolate, chocolate chip, peanut, and jam cookies, but here are some unusual, but true flavours that you can make yourself.
Habanero cookies: These are made with real habanero peppers that have been soaked in milk over a period of time to reduce the spiciness, however they promise to still have a bit of bite to them.
Black pepper cookies: These are cookies made with black pepper, nuts, cloves, ginger and cinnamon. They promise to make you sneeze all over your guests!
Hedgehog Cookies. Don’t worry, no real hedgehogs were harmed in the making of these cookies. These are basically sugar cookies that are moulded and baked into the shape of a hedgehog. They look cute and delicious.
Citrus egg yolk cookies: Have extra egg yolks kicking around after baking. These snickerdoodle style of cookies can be turned into sandwich cookies with the help of orange and lemon extract. They look and sound delicious!
Chocolate chip butternut squash cookies: These are oatmeal cookies that taste similar to a pumpkin pie.
Judging by this week’s forecast and our proximity to Christmas, it might be worthwhile exploring these cookie recipes for your guests. Although, we really don’t need much of an excuse to enjoy homemade cookies.
Now, when can I expect those cookies that I just accepted on a webpage earlier this week?
