Salted Chocolate Cocoa Crispies

Have you seen the biscuit cookie spreads in the grocery store? They seem to be a huge hit, at least with just about everyone I know.

I had dinner at my friend Barb’s house a short while ago. She was so excited to show me her latest find, biscuit cookies and cocoa spread. Barb had prepared an incredible meal, but waiting for the spread was not an option; I had to have a taste of it right then and there.

Barb told me that she was sure I would bake something delicious with the spread. I, certainly, did not want to disappoint her, so I ran to Trader Joe’s to buy a jar. I should have bought three because Samuel ate nearly the entire first batch of Salted Chocolate Cocoa Crispies.

The taste of the spread is not overly sweet thanks to the cocoa. The biscuit part of the spread, which is where the ‘crispies’ come from, includes cinnamon. So, I added some to the cookie dough to help bring this flavor out of the final cookie.

I am very excited to drop off some cookies to Barb. These thin cookies do a great job highlighting the spread she was kind enough to share with me. I just have to figure out how to keep Samuel out of the cookie jar!

Happylicious By Betsy December 2015 lo res I have loved desserts for as long as I can remember. Growing up I loved the smell of freshly baked challah in my maternal great-grandmother’s kitchen, the incredible butter cookies from my paternal grandmother and the perfect pies my mother used to bake when company came over.
