Best Cookie Recipe
No one ever said coffee and cookies are a bad combo. Because they can never be. It is widely accepted throughout the world that coffee and cookies are the best pair and they cannot be separated. I didn’t intend to separate them as well. So, I decided to add coffee into my cookies and made them healthy coffee walnut cookies. The aromatic, addictive coffee goes into the delicious cookies and makes it flavorful.
I have added some walnuts into these cookies to add some crunch and to give the essential nutrients that you need. What makes this recipe the best is that it is healthy. I have used whole wheat flour and brown sugar as healthier substitutes. And of course the walnuts which are rich in antioxidants and lowers bad cholesterol.Â
