Yet another simple and delicious recipe from my mum. This is a 'freezer box' cookie where you can make the dough in advance and freeze until required. If you are a coffee lover then this is definitely a cookie for you to try. Its really light and crumbly with the wonderful aroma and taste of coffee. The added crunch of the almond flakes gives it a nice texture.
