Cooking tips

You can replace the cocoa in these cookies with carob powder. The flavor will be virtually identical, and they're perfect for those who can't tolerate chocolate.

You can use maple, date, Jerusalem artichoke, or agave syrup, and adjust the amount depending on how sweet you want the cookies and how concerned you are about extra calories.

You can give the cookies a pleasant sour taste by adding dried cranberries or cherries.
