These are awesome, rich, wonderful cookies, not too sweet, but nicely chocolatey. I rolled them into 17 gm balls (OK, I'm a little OCD...) and it made 5 dozen beautiful cookies. I left them in balls on my cookie sheets and they made really pretty cookies with almost a crinkle texture on the top, but they didn't spread out much (which is fine with me). I did flatten some of them out with the back of a spatula and they were perfect for the tops and bottoms of bite sized ice-cream sandwiches.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a stay at home mom with 3 adorable children-an 8 year old daredevil son, a 5 1/2 year old princess and a wild little 2 year old girl! I love to cook, and like having my little helpers in the kitchen!
I usually love recipes that are completely from scratch (I still love them actually) but right now my focus is on having any kind of food ready by mealtime! It's a little crazy here lately. Every summer we have a huge organic garden, apple orchard and raspberry and blueberry patches, along with a woods full of wild foods waiting for me to learn what they are so I can collect them. I'm learning about wild mushrooms first, so if anyone has any tips, let me know. We also eat wild venison which my husband and I hunt ourselves. It's our favorite meat, since it's lean, organic and cheap! Some of my hobbies are: hiking, biking, rock climbing, gardening, playing in the water with my kids, or just swinging in the hammock with a good book. I go stir crazy if I spend too much time inside.
