In this cookie-tin there are 4 different kinds of cookies of Chocolate Chips and Oatmeal Cookies, Ginger Cookies, Coconut Ice, and Rocky Road. The ginger cookies are rather spicy but they are good, I liked them very much.
I did not bake them but they were parcel by Emily, our family friend, visiting from Australia 😀
That being said, there is not step by step pictures for each cookies nor video, sorry!
