Just a little treat for my cello recital. I must say the cello gets me cooking. It is strange but yes it is true. Everybody likes a little snack while or after you play. This is on my menu along with my mom's red velvet cake and blackberry bars. Speaking of blackberries you may think I have a picky pallet only for creamy sophisticated foods. Well I am a lot more simple then you think. My favorite food is blackberries. Get me a bucket full and I'm yours! I LOVE them. Back to my cookies. These chocolate chip cookies contain a special ingredient called mesquite flour. This flour has a chocolate aroma and makes an intense shadow taste into your food. I added a few ingredients based on my hopefully keen nose. These contents were the juice of one strawberry, a sprinkle of ginger and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I did this to add sort of a contrast with the chocolate, besides it never hurts to add some spice that is exotic to America. Today I have learned that contrasts intensify the flavor and give a shadow to your meal or dessert.
