One of my favorite recipes to make. I double the coffee granules to give it a richer coffee flavor.

These cookies were so easy to make and bake. My family loved them. I will make these often. i didn't have 1/2 and !/2, so I used milk. They still turned out though.

In the magazine it says to "one portion, add the cocoa and walnuts and remaining CREAM" to half the dough. What remaining cream?! Thank goodness for the online version that says remaining FLOUR. Back to kitchen...
