Planned to make cookies today n thought why not make choco mint pinwheel from the  cookie cookbook which my uncle brought me from Singapore. I didnt have the courage to make this biscuit because it is little difficult to make, but then build some courage and started making this biscuit n I think I decently pulled it off. It came out pretty well though not prefect round shape.(Will definitely achieve next time). the taste was superb the combo of peppermint n cocoa was yummy. Sending this cookies to Champa's Bake-Off event and Baking From Book-Cookies
