SCALLOPED MOCHA COOKIES

Scalloped Mocha Cookies image

I tore this recipe out of a magazine many years ago, and they are one of my most requested cookie. They contain the four Cs, coffee, chocolate, cinnamon and crunch. Since they are sprinkled with coarse sugar, they add a little glitz to a cookie tray.-Loraine Meyer, Bend, Oregon
