CNY 2020 - COFFEE BUTTER COOKIES

One of my favourite cookies for 2020 - Coffee flavour butter cookies.  These cookies are nice, so aromatic.  Love the coffee aroma.  Great to enjoy these cookies with a cup of hot beverage.  
 I did not use emulco coffee but instead mix the below instant coffee  with 1 sachet of Cafe 21 2-in instant coffee.
