On another blog post, someone, (Nancy Jarvis, maybe?) commented that she entices people to her books with cookies containing a mystery ingredient. I've been using this idea, adding cardamon to my standard crinkles (chocolate cookie) recipe. Whether cayenne, chili oil, or cardamon, chocolate goes great with a shot of hot! Thanks to you, and Nancy? for a great idea. Happy holidays!
