The cookie jar on the café counter never stays full for long, especially in October. Customers reach for “just one” while waiting for their drinks, only to find themselves wondering if they should take a few more home. These cookies are soft in the center, lightly crisp around the edges, and deeply chocolatey thanks to Michelle’s Mexican Mocha Mix. A hint of cinnamon quietly rounds out the flavor, making them feel richer than an ordinary chocolate cookie.
