These were great mini morsels and addictive too. I used oatmeal instead of flax meal and 2 very big bananas. Made for Everyday is a Holiday.

Yum! I really love that these are made with whole wheat flour, I haven't been using enough of that lately and it helped make these a treat, I did cut the amount in half and also the chips (used 2 tbsp). The only real problem with this recipe is that it just too easy to keep on munching these small delights. I had downed 4 of them before I thought about stopping, lol. Best when still warm enough for the chocolate to still be soft and a bit gooey. They won't last long if you have kids in the house.

So I cheated! Although I pretty much followed your recipe, I did almost double the amount of mini chocolate chips, but what's a dedicated chocoholic to do ~ Cut back? No way! Any, although I did share them with my son & DIL, another time they'll be made just for the 2 of us here at home! Thanks for sharing this great recipe! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar recipe tag]
