Something of my own creation, these cookies started off as my chocolate chip cookie recipe, but with a bit of cloves thrown in for a winter flavor profile. I then split the dough in half, adding coco powder and chocolate chips to one half, and white chocolate chips to the other half. I then scooped out the cookie doughs individually, chopped the balls in half, and mixed them up to creat these cookies.

On the right side, the chocolate and chocolate chips represent the year qe have left behind, while the right side represents the blank slate and new opportunities the new year offers us all

Ooh, I love the symbolism. The cloves caught my attention too.

I love cloves and tend to throw them in a lot of things i bake. Everyone thought that i used gingerbread to make these cookies, but that was just because of the bite if the cloves and spices.
