These Chocolate Spice Cookies are a hit with my family and anywhere I choose to take them.

My girls love to help in the kitchen, especially when cookies are involved!

The girls were a big help!

These chocolatey cinnamon cookies are warm and delicious.

A perfect holiday treat!

We love using essential oils in baking. They have a strong flavor and aroma.

Cinnamon oil makes chocolate delectable!

These cookies smell amazing and they’re just the right amount of spice!
