Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies
Not all cookies are created equal, and this chocolatey showstopper is definitely a standout.
With flavours of cinnamon, chocolate, and ancho chilli, these cookies are a nod to the delicious beverage that is Mexican hot chocolate, a rich and creamy decadence with a slight kick of heat. The toasted marshmallow on top adds the perfect amount of sweetness to complement these rich and spicy treats!
