When this recipe was sent to me by a friend, I knew right away it was not getting put on the back burner. These tasty little morsels were getting made that same afternoon! Sure enough, I fell in love with these bites. The recipe is SO versatile--I look forward to substituting raisins or craisins or chopped nuts for the chocolate chips, and even cocoa powder for the flax.
WAY healthier than a cookie, and (dare I say!) even more delicious, I look forward to keeping an arsenal of these in my refrigerator. Now, to learn self -control. These babies are SO good, I have trouble not eating half the batch. :)
