Expert Tips

Dark chocolate contains some antioxidants that may help cells fight off oxygen damage. Just don't overdo it since chocolate also has plenty of calories and fat.

To boost whole grains, reduce the all-purpose flour by 1/2 cup and add 1/2 cup whole wheat flour in its place.

I was surprised at how good these tasted! I'll definitely make them again and will try half whole wheat/white flour to see if they taste just as good.

I thought these cookies were awesome! I was not expecting them to be this good for only 90 calories per cookie...but they were, and my hubby and kids loved them too! We did have chocolate chip and half butterscotch for added yumminess. :)

These cookies are delicious! They're soft, but yet, the granola gives them a great texture. They're not big on presentation, but perfect for around the house to cure that chocolate itch. Only needed 10 minutes of bake time as well. My only recommendation is to let the batter "rest" for about 20 minutes before baking. The cookies seemed to set-up better that way.
