This receipe would be perfect if not for the nuts. Cause I don't like nuts in my mouth. ehehehehe
Not a big nut fan.

[Mommy Munch]

I agree.....not a big nut fan either.....well, kinda. I don't like nuts in my food, or at least walnuts.....I hate them! Whenever a recipe calls for nuts, I leave them out. Tastes much better.

They look delicious, and I hate nuts too *yuck* - so yeah, they get left out for me too

Chocolate cookies should be just that, chocolate. No nuts

I don't mind nuts, but in cookies, I'll pass.
