Super yummy, soft and chewy chocolate cookies, that are fairly easy to make and you can garnish to your liking them with lots of yummy things. Funny enough, I wasn’t even planning to make cookies. It was actually meant to be a pie crust…
Turns out this is waaay better. And as always, these cookies are vegan, gluten-free and without refined sugar. I actually sweetened them with dates. It doesn’t need nuts and no oil either. Yay!
For the chocolate glaze, I simply use melted TradeAid dark chocolate drops. They are my go to chocolate for recipes like this and they are organic as well as fair-trade 🙂
