Coffee and Almond Cookies


Cookies or baked potato?? Hehee...these are cookies for a friend who just quit from coffee. To me, coffee is like something magic that giving me energy and power to do my daily activities. How can i wake up without morning coffee? I've tried to quit few times and all i got is headache and yawning for whole day. And guess what, i use my potato slicer to get that shape, smart eh... hahaa
