Hi.  It's been a while, hasn't it?  With our current snack rotation at church it can be months between my last time on and the next.

It's a busy weekend around here.  We're having a pulled pork taco party, plus a party for our "how did she get old enough to be 4" daughter. There is a carnival and parade and fireworks to attend, and general, normal household things to take care of.

And church snack.  Amid the business I was just going to make basic chocolate chip cookies.  I intended to.  I got the recipe out and got started.  Then I looked in the freezer and saw butterscotch chips.  Hmm, okay.  But they're so sweet.  What would balance that?  Cocoa.  Yeah, but I don't really like chocolate butterscotch cookies.  Coffee?  Hmmmm.  Coffee is bitter and would definitely do the trick.  So I modified my recipe and came up with these (I really need something besides a blue plate for pictures)
