A re-work of an ooey-gooey favorite. Coaching clients sometimes ask me to re-work family favorite recipes because they know I enjoy finding healthier ways to eat yummy food. These cookies are fast, easy, and full of fiber and protein, not to mention chocolate! Think breakfast, snacks, and dessert! No giving up cookies in this kitchen!
This recipe makes the right amount for two people or one, and some to share. Double the recipe, easily, for a family of 3 or more.
