Powder Cookies

This recipe comes from mother of one of my blog readers, Michele.

I made a few small adjustments to the original spec and they turned out amazing! I love the texture that lays somewhere between a biscuit and a macaron, dead easy to make and super delicious to snack on while watching your favourite movie on the sofa.

The only thing you gonna need is a cup of tea or coffee :)
