It is the first choice for many people to enjoy during afternoon tea time or leisure time. If you like baking and trying new recipes, making your own coffee bean cookies will be an exciting and fun challenge.

Material preparation

To make these delicious, crispy coffee bean cookies, you’ll need the following:

• 100g caster sugar
