I was playing with another recipe I came up with these. At
the moment, I am calling those cow pie cookies, because even though they are chocolaty
and chewy, they are flat and look like cow pies… I will post the recipe when I
get it perfected.
This recipe is a bit different in that there is no white
sugar and has cinnamon in them. The family devoured these. I hid a few and week
later they were still fairly soft, this is great news for all those early
Christmas cookie makers!
