I've had Mexican hot chocolate and a dessert my best friend made with oatmeal and Ibarra Mexican table chocolate. I started thinking this would be delicious in cookie form. I Googled it and sure enough found a bunch of different recipes. I tested the one posted on the Food Network but made a few adjustments with what I had in the cupboard. I can't wait to make another batch!
6 tbs butter
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 egg whites
1 c wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
*1/2 c Tia Pablo Chocolate Azteca Mix (which was my substitute, but I'd much rather prefer the ingredients below)
1/2 c unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
generous pinch of ground black pepper
generous pinch of cayenne
pinch of nutmeg optional
