Mmmm! nice cookies, I like how they were nice and soft inside. I kind of went overboard on the cocoa so mine are a bit dark but I liked that, I used whole wheat cake flour so that would make them a bit darker also. I put a wee bit more raising powder in them to compensate. a nice cookie that I can have for a wee treat at Christmas time. Thank you I love your recipes Annacia.

Great cookies. i used mini M&M's in place of choc chips, still tasty and very colorful! I will be making this again because even diabetics NEED cookies once in a while. Thanks for sharing Annacia! Made for I Recommend Tag Game.

Annacia, this is a wonderful, moist and chocolatey cookie that everyone in my house enjoyed so much! The cocoa adds a bitter-sweet touch and makes this cookie very special and oh so yummy! I luved how quick and easy this was to put together and what a fab result it yielded! Instead of splenda I used sugar (Im not diabetic), but reduced it to 1/4 cup, which was plenty for me. I will surely make this winner of a recipe again and again! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for sharing it with us! Made and reviewed for PRMR Holiday Special Decembre 09.
