Comments
My mixture was dry and biscuits crumbly, nothing like the picture.
Unsure why.....although the taste was good.
These were really good. I used raisins instead of choc chips. Yummy.
As a healthier alternative to chocolate cookies these were a huge hit in our house. Made slight alterations to the recipe as I didn't have enough quinoa so for the flour I substituted with an almond and buckwheat mix. Also went the cacoa option and they turned out scumptious! Definitely will be making these again! Thank you
