The famous Neiman Marcus Biscuit

Why is it so famous??? Well.... email has been circulating around... about this lady who dined at this 'Neiman-Marcus' restaurant in the US. She tried this biscuit, liked it and asked for the recipe... To make long story short - she was charged US$250 for the recipe... not happy (obviously!!) she circulated the recipe via email.... just to spike the restaurant!! How authentic the story?? Your guess is as good as mine!

So we decided to try out the recipe.... no harm done....

Verdict~the cookies are really good... of course with all the chocolates... hazelnut thrown in....

These cookies do not have a long life span in our cookie jar....just like 'that biscuits' advert...
