Well, unless the intent is to engorge ones self with as many fat and sugar gram servings as possible in one sitting. Then those bloggers deserve 10's from the Russian judge.<br /><br />Hey, I'm putting together a round-up of low carb cookies for one of my clients (The Low Carb Diet). Would you mind if I linked to your recipe and used a photo in a collage? Please let me know, m'kay?

However, they should be moist, fudgy, a bit chewy but not dry. <br />So I'm thinking, maybe it has to do with the almond butter you use (thicker than mine?)<br />Also, make sure to use natural, as opposed to Dutch-processed, cocoa. They have different levels of acidity, which react differently and may make the cookies dry.Mike @TheIronYouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10366439657152961176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-74911116587509806752014-10-13T23:39:50.284-04:002014-10-13T23:39:50.284-04:00Okay, did I do something wrong or is the texture o...Okay, did I do something wrong or is the texture of these cookies quite different to a 'normal' cookie? Its the first time I have baked without the usual egg/sugar/flour base and these were quite unusual, moist to the touch but quite dry in the mouth. They did taste very delicious and there are none left however!!!
