Kicking Craisin Cookies
This is a soft cookie with a great kick. You may want to adjust the cayenne pepper amount according to your degree of heat tolerance! I like it hot!! This recipe comes for 'Key Lime Pie' A Culinary Mystery by Josi S. Kilpack. I have increased the cayenne pepper to my liking.
