Day Two of the 12 Days of Cookies and we’re getting a little sassy. This time we’re taking that basic butter dough, adding some cocoa and turning it into the most delicious chocolate cookie. But not just any chocolate cookie; this one has a twist. This one is a Mexican Chocolate Crinkle cookie.

For the last few years, February has been my month of chocolate. All chocolate, all the time with an occasional exception for Chinese New Year, the Olympics and Super Bowl snacks. It seems appropriate that February = chocolate. They just go together. To open the Month of Chocolate this year I wanted to start with Mexican chocolate, those discs of chocolate, cinnamon, sugar and ground almonds that seem to accumulate in my cupboards. I’ve been shifting one of the stupid octogon shaped boxes around far too much lately; it was time to do something with it. The last time it fell on my head, was the last. I just left it on the counter as a reminder to use it ASAP.
