These cookies are so rich and scrumptious I just had to share. I decided to make these with whole wheat flour, different from the traditional cookie made with white flour. After they came out of the oven, I couldn't believe how perfect they were. I used and highly recommend you make these with Wheat Mountain Bronze Chief, 100% whole wheat flour. The chocolate chips were the special dark and added just the right dark chocolate bitter sweetness combined with the oatmeal, brown sugar and crushed life cereal which I decided to add in for extra heartiness. I hope you decide to try them. An added bonus is they are healthy. The added fiber combined with the sugar slows down the sugar absorbtion in the body. You can eat all you want and get your fiber and dark chocolate anti-oxidents for the day! A final few words are, you can eat healthy by adding just the right ingrediants to your recipe.
