Feel free to explore flavor additions that will change the profile of the finished cookie. Some variations include espresso powder; it boosts the chocolate flavor while adding the merest aromatic hint of itself. For a mocha crinkle, add espresso powder. We use one tablespoon or more to taste. For a peppermint twist, substitute 1/4 teaspoon peppermint oil for the vanilla. Add two tablespoons of fine orange zest for a melt-in-the-mouth chocolate orange cookie.
