cookies made with love

I have been wanting to eat my chocolate oatmeal cookies, but always seemed to have trouble finding the time to make them.  On this rare three-day long weekend, I made them!  I used agave instead of sugar.  I have been curious for awhile what it would turn out like.  I also used organic whole wheat flour, free-range eggs, organic rolled oats, and Valrhona chocolate.  I'm quite content with the result.  It's not as sinful as my usual cookies and  it's a little softer because of the higher moisture with using the agave, but it's still a good cookie.  I was pleasantly surprised that people liked it just as much as the ones I used to make and it also disappeared from the tray just as fast.

My cookies just before going into the oven.

Waiting....waiting...waiting...

Ah!!! Done!

Tomorrow.....churning my lavender ice cream....also made using agave and free-range eggs.
