Chocolate Diablo Cookie Recipe

Chocolate Diablo cookies are essentially spicy ginger chocolate cookies. I like to call them Hot Cocoa Cookies. This recipe is sweet and spicy, crunchy on the outside and chewy like a brownie on the inside. They have a unique flavour that will leave you totally satisfied. This recipe is from a local Vancouver food truck called Tacofino, so if you’re looking for their spicy cookie recipe you’ve come to the right spot. Enjoy!
