I likes these cookies! I made them for this years christmas cookie swap and of course had to sample them! lol I didn't have an coriander, so I substituted cumin, and I couldn't find white pepper at my store, so I left it out. Even though I didn't have everything stated, these were well liked in my home.

I'm a girl who for the first time in her life, is missing frost and snow. I moved from Pennsylvania to North Carolina, following my Marine husband. I love cooking, and apparently my friends are impressed, but I constantly try to be better. I'm just starting to truly make recipes my own. <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?p=4076688"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="PAC Fall 2008"></a> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
