Coffee Cookies – Easy 3

This was one of my choices for BSI but I used something else.  I did bake it though so I thought I would share it with you.  I didn’t do it purposely but in my search to find this recipe, I found dozens of others that look better.  This is a simple recipe but hubby likes it so it seems to have turned out.  If you want  and easy recipe and you like coffee, try this.
