DIABLO COOKIES
Monday, January 14, 2013This cookie is a mean, bad ass cookie. It pulls no punches and oh my, it's so good!
I took these beauties with me when meeting a new group of ladies to drink wine (not me this time due to no booze January) and natter about Project Life.
Also it's time to embrace the cup measure system. I disliked it so much at first and converted everything to grams but so many recipes here are in cups and I hate maths so cups it is!

Hi Elyse .... Is canola oil the same as veg oil ?

These sound good! I'm done with my sugar fast and I'd love to make these, but my husband is allergic to fresh ginger. Any suggestions on a substitute? Lemon juice, maybe?
ReplyDeleteI think lime would work well as a substitue as you will still get that zing you get from the ginger. I would use the zest and juice of 1 lime. Let me know how you get on.
DeleteI'll try that, thanks! I love the combination of chocolate + spicy. :)
