mocha cappuccino cookies
I first made them with peanut butter chips and it was very good. However I had to change to cappuccino chips when I made them for someone with a peanut allergy. They were a big hit so I altered the recipe to what it is today. So if you want to make it with peanut butter chips rather than cappuccino chips its good too.
