These Spicy Caramel Cookies are a sweet and crunchy cookie. One of the easiest cookie recipes to make. Super flavorful!
These Spicy Caramel Cookies are one of the easiest cookies to make. I love the taste of cinnamon so I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter.
These cookies are naturally crunchy and I found it difficult to just have one. Next time I make these I might add some butterscotch chips for a little more flavor!
If you are wondering what the consistency of these cookies is, I would compare them to gingersnaps. These are the kind of cookies that won’t last long. After you are done making this cookie recipe, you need to make my Gingersnap Cookie recipe.
