Mocha Cookies

Today I made cookies instead of blogging. Then I thought I could make cookies and still blog, if I blogged about cookies. Thus I present the great profundity of my cookie recipe.

• Preheat oven to 200°C.


• Cream 125ml baking margarine. (I microwave it for 30 seconds first.)


• Stir in 250ml sugar.


• Beat two eggs and add to mixture.


• Sift in 500ml flour, 150ml cocoa and 5ml baking powder.


• Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add half a cup of strong black coffee. (I used 5 spoons of chicory blend coffee in mine, but the coffee taste isn't very strong.)


• Stir


• Either roll the dough out and cut with a cookie cutter or mould it into little mounds and place on a greased baking tray.


• Bake for about ten minutes in the top of the oven.


• I sandwiched mine with icing-sugar-and-water icing (with a bit of cocoa added), but they work fine as individual biscuits too.
