Even non-coffee drinkers will be unable to resist the Coffee and Chocolate Chip Shortbreads, with a mere 2 teaspoons of freeze-dried instant coffee granules. While flipping through the pages, filled with beautiful color photographs, you can almost experience the olfactory sensation of freshly ground coffee beans.
