I'm jealous that your cookie actually look like cookies :) These were a definite flop for me, but since I don't like nuts they didn't stand much of a chance to start with. I do like the cocoa powder substitution so I may eventually try them that way if I can find someone brave enough to try them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131968703642650198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-45944804054964995132009-12-16T18:22:26.359-08:002009-12-16T18:22:26.359-08:00Your cookies look fabulous!
