I had this chunk of cooking chocolate lying in my refrigerator for a long time now. I wanted to bake some chocolate chip muffins but due to some unexpected turn of events I couldn't do that. Hence I decided to bake these simple yet healthy and satisfying cookies.
I stumbled on this recipe on ellesnewenglandkitchen.com. The recipe was actually vegan so i made a few changes to make it vegetarian. Even though the cookies are not very photogenic, they taste just as great.
