Chocolate Arrowroot Cookies (No Gluten, No Sugar)

Aimee88's Note:

This is a alteration of my Ginger Cookies (No Gluten, No Sugar), a ginger version. These are a tasty little chocolate cookie without sugar or grains. If you didn't want nuts, you could leave them out but might want a bit more arrowroot. These are mixed all in the saucepan you start with and are so good I usually make a double batch.

Very rich, deep chocolate flavor. I added 1 square of 90 percent chocolate and they turned out absolutely perfect for my tastebuds :) You have to like chocolate cookies which are not very sweet, otherwise you might be disappointed. This will be a keeper for me. Thanks for posting! Made for Comfort Cafe Snowqueen's Round 2010.
