Bak Kwa Cookies ~ CNY 2013


I was curious when I saw this post by Ann of  Anncoojournal.  Never thought of adding 'Bak Kwa' or BBQ meat into cookies....hmmm wonder how the cookies would taste.   To satisfy my curiosity I made them and was not disappointed at all.  They were not too sweet, a wee bit savoury,  fragrant and chewy, not a bad choice cookie for the Chinese New Year!
