"honey sweetened cookies" news and stories

These cookies are evidence that when it comes to food, I am one of the most suggestible individuals around. It was particularly cold out last night, dropping to below freezing for the first time this winter season. I came home from a dinner of cheap (but delicious) Indian food with a friend. Moments after I walked in the door, Scott said, "You know what would be good tonight? Cookies!"

Instantly, I realized the correctness in his statement and soon after was headed to the kitchen. However, much to his disappointment, I took the opportunity to tweak my favorite oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe into something a little healthier by using whole wheat flour and honey for the sweetener. The resulting cookies were wonderful, but a discerning eater can tell that they aren't your typical, white flour, brown sugar cookies. Check out the recipe after the jump.
