What better than pairing one of Mexico's finest imports--Kahlua--with white chocolate chips? And in a delicious cookie form, no doubt. This recipe produces a soft cookie, rich with a creamy texture and slight hint of coffee. TIP ON INSTANT COFFEE: It's best to use a quality brand of instant coffee (crystals or granules) that produces a cup of coffee that you thoroughly enjoy drinking. Bargain or generic brands of instant coffee tend to produce a bitter after-taste. And if you don't enjoy drinking the coffee it produces, then you're not likely to enjoy it in baked goods either.
