  very nice cookies! I had to use some dried chopped chillies with normal dark chocolate as I couldn't get hold of chilli chocolate. I was, shall we say, 'generous' with the chilli and very pleased with the outcome. The cookies didn't spread very well, so didn't look quite like the photo here suggests, more rugged, but they were definitely a hit. Recommended!

  These were spicy numbers! Made 40 as stated in the recipe. The recipe also suggests serving with vanilla ice cream which is a good idea as the creaminess cuts through the heat. An unusual dessert.

  Tried these today with my children and their friends. Was a little worried that the mixture didn't look wet enough for the amount of dry ingredients, however it came together beautifully. The children thoroughly enjoyed them straight from the oven with ice cream!! Plenty of seconds were requested.

  Very quick and easy. Made a batch for a family meal, so did 20 with chilli and 20 without - all were delicious. Will be making another batch for a school bake sale next week. As mentioned, they are fabulous with ice cream as a dessert.

  I LOVE spicy food but these were too much! I put less cayenne pepper than the recipe suggested and this was still too much. I am going to make them again today as the cookies were yummy, but without any chilli! If I make chilli ones again i will use chilli chocolate but not add spice to the cookie dough as it made them taste like curry cookies! But still giving a good star rating as delicious otherwise!

  Also forgot to mention that I made these with Doves Farm gluten free flour and 1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum and the consistency was perfect!
