I bought 2 tubes of Polo sweets, sort of in a hurry. To my surprise, I got a tube which is flavoured! To those who know me, I'm not a sweets person. I hardly eat any sweets and I can't remember when was the last time I had eaten Polo. I guess I'm too far behind time, Polo mints are actually flavoured now!!
Left with only 1 tube of Polo, I wasn't expecting too much mint flavour this time. Truly, there was hardly any mint flavour in the cookies. As I chopped the Polo sweets coarsely, you can only taste it when there's bits of crushed Polo here and there.
All of a sudden, I was in a very giving mood, and decided to pack one box to give away to my friend and my neighbour with 2 little boys. Just left only a few for myself to test-taste. The kids love it very much!
i have bookmarked this recipe for ages, but never got to baking it yet. do you like it? was it too sweet? crunchy or chewy type?
ReplyDeletei apologise in advance for my questions....
Hi skinnymum, it's not very sweet, just nice for me. It's crunchy on the outside and chewy inside. I cut short the baking time to less than 15 min as I wasn't very experienced in baking chocolate cookies and find it hard to gauge when it is done cos chocolate cookies are darker. I think it could have been crunchier if I bake a little longer. It's quite nice actually, but the mint taste is not strong enough. :)
ReplyDeleteYummy cookies. I like crunchy cookies. I shall try this soon. Hope this is the crunchy type. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteHi grace, I like crunchy cookies too. I felt this is not very crunchy. Maybe I didn't do it well. Will like to see your results if you try. :)
