I really love to bake cookies, especially this time of year. Yes, I know it’s hot in Australia and we do not get all the White Christmas vibes people in the Northern Hemisphere get right now, but I can still switch my oven own thanks to my air-con! So, I don’t give up baking cookies! In fact, this year I have been on a baking spree and I will be sharing a few of my favourite cookie recipes with you over the next few weeks. These Coffee Sables are definitely a personal favourite… I LOVE coffee, so coffee flavoured cookies are clearly very high on my “like list”. These cookies are buttery and crumbly, and they taste of… you guessed it… coffee. So they are simply perfect! I will be making them again! Do try them and let me know how you like them! Happy baking!

I, too, am in the middle of Christmas baking with the air-con on. I love the idea of these biscuits- anything coffee is delicious! Buon Natale!
