Ok, melt some chocolate chips in a saucepan and stir in some of the spices. Put the melted spiced chocolate into a piping bag and pipe little blobs onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. let them chill and make the cookie dough (with maybe a tablespoon of spice mix in it). By the time the dough is made, the spiced chocolate chips will be ready and you can put them in the dough! Bake them normally (or just eat the dough...) and you have spiced chocolate chip cookies!

I haven’t seen popcorn mentioned yet. Hmm! I put mulling spices on my popcorn while i’s popping or immediately after it’s done. So good!

Sorry to make you hungry! I have mini muffins in the oven now

Ok here’s the verdict.

Yuletide: reminds me of Christmas, and a pine tree. Not in a bad way. Just not what I consider a fall flavor

Gingerbread: tastes as expected

Speculaas: similar to gingerbread, with a spicier finish

Chai: a more subtle flavor than the others. Shouldn’t be paired with anything too strong and shouldn’t be eaten after the other flavors

Nice review!

Nice review!

Thanks! I find those sort of things useful. I’d also say that I might’ve used too much Yuletide. I’m not sure if I used less if I’d prefer it more

Maybe save it for Christmas cookies? Then the "fall" expectation won't be there?

With Yuletide right in the name, it’s not surprising that it doesn’t fit the fall flavor profile. It’s actually amazing how well they’ve captured the essence of Christmas to be honest. I might try one of their recipes that uses it and see if I’m more partial to that

What is the Yuletide blend?
Is it like nutmeg or something?

It’s a spice blend offered by King Arthur Flour. I placed a picture of the label in my first post that shows the spices in the mix
