Passover Cookies

dojemi's Note:

These were the most amazing cookies I have every tasted. They are "very" crispy. I will make this year-round, not just for Passover.

Great Passover cookie recipe! I replaced the nuts with 1/2 cup mixed fruit and 1/2 cup chocolate chips as my son does not like nuts in baked goods. I baked for only 12 minutes as we don't like too crispy cookies. The taste and texture were excellent. Nice crunch on the outside, softer on the inside, especially right out of the oven. No problems scooping batter. I used generous tablespoons and got 50 good sized cookies. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It's going into the Passover file and will use it again next year. A winner!!

Wow! Very unusual texture - like nothing I've ever had before. These were so good that I'd try them without the chocolate chips!

I was really surprised. My picky husband and I loved these cookies. My hubby does not eat raisins or walnuts so I did 11/2 bittersweet chocolate and 1 1/2 dried cherries (Thanks 364186). I then cut the recipe in half and added walnuts to my half. His were flatter like regular chocolate chips but mine were just like the photo. Thank You for the wonderful treat we will have them again during the year.
