MEXICAN CHOCOLATE-CHERRY ROUNDS
Rich chocolate cookies get some Mexican flair when spiced up with cinnamon, cloves and cayenne pepper. Blanched almonds or pistachios can be used instead of cherries. I make these every year for Christmas and they're always a hit. Prep time includes chilling

MEXICAN CHOCOLATE WALNUT-CHERRY BISCOTTI
I love to combine flavors and spices from different cultures. These cookies have ground cinnamon in them, which is a classic flavor in Mexican chocolate. They are very crunchy and are loaded with maraschino cherries and toasted walnuts. -Nancy C. Evans, Phoenix, Arizona
