A batch of cookies made at home with love seemed the best gift for all the dads in my life this Father's Day. I was able to save money, spend time in the kitchen (which I love) and still make them smile.
I promised myself I'd try to make a "normal" recipe instead of the ultra-healthy ones they always tease me about. And I did... for the most part.
I used the basic Toll House recipe doubled. I omitted one stick of butter, added some ground flax and applesauce. And for some extra staying power, half the flour was whole wheat.
My chocolates of choice were one Toll House and one Ghiradelli. Oh, and several tablespoons of raw cacao nibs for extra antioxidants. The cacao nibs added a bit of nuttiness and crunch to this delicious cookie.
The cookies were well-received. Delicious as they were, next time I'd make a some changes. I think less flour would make them perfect.
