Original Recipe: Post Punk Kitchen
I like that this recipe is vegan, however in my alterations I sub the maple syrup for honey, as I usually have it on hand over maple syrup. It works well with the flavor profile I think. Today, I added 1/2 teaspoon of espresso powder to the recipe, and did a quarter teaspoon each cayenne and hatch green chili powder.
I think these are one of my favorite cookies. I’ve probably been making them a decade, glad the recipe is still up, one of these days I’ll write it down.



I’ve made these before. They’re amazing. They weirdly go so well with a blond ale that my wife and I have started to call them beer cookies
Interesting combo. I can only guess as to what a blond ale would taste like, but it does sound an interesting combo. Must pair well if you’ve coined a new name!
I think of blond ales as a pale ale without the hops. So it’s a kinda sweet, kinda bready, not too bitter ale. No roasty flavors like chocolate or coffee notes since the barley is barely toasted.
