The cookies I made for The Relay are derived from Heidi Swanson’s 101 Cookbooks Marathon Cookie recipe. Heidi writes that she didn’t want her cookies to be too sweet, and that she was looking for bright, crisp flavors. I’m not a huge fan of the aniseed/licorice flavor, but wanted the “spice” pop she describes. I [...]
