Garam masala & chocolate chunk cookies

When musing on spices and flavour I had an idea for a garam masala cookie, then pushed it away as madness. After all, the spice blend is designed for finishing curries, lending bittersweet complexity from the nutmeg, cinnamon, pepper, cumin, cloves and coriander. Yet my mind was caught and, happily, I’m here to tell you it works. The blend offsets the dark chocolate whilst the nuggets of fiery crystallised ginger play off the warming heat that gives garam masala its name.

The best,
