Cookies Galore

These are the cookies that I made with Wani during Hari Raya at her house. We made 3 different types of cookies till the wee hours of the morning and had to skip school as a result.

These cookies are oh so nice and crunchy too...However, our chocolate chip cookies didn't turned out well in the beginning as there wasn't enough flour (her expert neighbour told us) and we had to add some flour to every single cookie dough which we moulded.

On the whole, my favourite was the Minty cookies (not everyone likes mint) and the cocoa crunch. The latter was super easy to make and delicious too!

Here goes the recipes:
