I made this recipe just as written but added some carob chips . This is just the kind of recipe I wanted, I would reccomend it hands down to anyone looking for a more virtuous sweet snack. The only reason I didn't do 5 stars is because you really have to baby-sit the cookies during baking, do not leave the room! They cross over from raw to burnt in about two seconds. I would reccomend using a cookie sheet with an air pocket and I had to bake them at 300 to get them right. I would also bake them one small sheet at a time to minimise any losses the first go through. Seriously, I do a lot of baking so I know what I'm doing but the combination of honey and whole wheat makes for a quick burn. Also they were a little dry which might be unavoidable, next time I might add some applesauce to try to get it moister like some people did but I think they might burn even faster then. Hmmm.

Could this recipe be easier? No matter where I bring this I never have to deal with leftovers, everyone loves them from my in-laws to my husband's guy friends to the members of my stay at home mom group. This is one of my stock recipes, thanks so much!

Thank you thank you thank you! These cookies are beyond belief they are so good! Because of dietary restrictions related to my son's asthma we do not use dairy or sugar in our house and these cookies were an amazing start towards a dessert we can all enjoy. To make them work for us I omitted the butter and dry milk, replacing them with a combination of 2 cups of milled flax seed and a half a cup of soy milk. I also replaced the chocolate chips with unsweetened carob chips. Obviously that is A LOT of changes from a traditional cookie recipe so I was shocked when I was able to bring them to a lunch play-date and the other kids actually ate them! Thank-you, it means so much to my son to be able to share with other kids. They are already on high request at our house and I think that we will be making them to have on hand.
