I received this same recipe from a friend years ago, but her instructions differ in that they are baked at 300F for 20 minutes. Tried both and prefer my friend’s method as they result in a cakey cookie-center with crisp edges and very little spread. (Cooked at 375 is still delicious but dry by comparison). Also, the dough freezes beautifully. I shape cookies on tray and freeze for about an hour then store in freezer bag. Bake as much as I want (or as little as I should) from frozen.
Love these cookies. It’s a denser cookie with half the butter and less white sugar.
This does not appear to be true to the original recipe. Firstly, it seems to be a half recipe. Secondly, it doesn’t call for a grated Hershey’s bar or oats.
@Revcornie you did not make this cookie
I made these with almond flour and whole wheat flour combined. Also part brown sugar and part Splenda. All of the chocolate chips, none of the espresso. No one complained about the lack, but asked for more! Then again, I was making these for a healthy crowd of physical therapists. With age and health conditions, I find inspiration in the Times Recipes and adjust them according to my nutritional needs. I also made these cookies smaller in size to get the calorie and carb content within recommended parameters. Getting a sweet treat rather than having to restrict foods is the name of the game in my book.
