Mocha is one of my favourite flavours so I am always on the lookout for new recipes with chocolate and coffee. During this unseasonable cold and snowy Vancouver winter my friend Marina mentioned making these Kraft’s Coffee-Chocolate Chunk Cookies.

The one great thing about making my own updated retro food is it is usually fast and cheap! I don’t know about you but those are two things that I care about deeply, especially right now. It has been hot and humid and I am financially recovering from my Toronto trip. As a result, I […]
