These cookies kind of look like dinosaur poo. Ah well.
There are things in this world that will never make sense to me. Like why Facebook is so addicting. It’s the first thing I look at…on my phone…on my computer…on someone else’s computer. It’s just wrong. Especially since I don’t know half the people I’m friends with on Facebook. So I look through the newsfeed of people’s daily lives and get nothing from it. I don’t care if Betty Jo got a new cat. Who the f*ck is Betty Jo?! Maybe I shouldn’t add people I don’t know on Facebook. Nah. That would just be rude. Jk, I denied someone today. Suckaaaaa.
I’m so b*tchy right now.
I also don’t understand why sugar makes me fat. Please don’t leave a link in the comments leading me to why sugar is bad for you. I understand it BUT I don’t understand it. Makes sense, right? Thought so. The thing is, I’m so kind to sugar, buying it often, kissing it, singing to it…and it gives me nothing back. Oh wait, it does give me love handles. Those things are cute, right? Thought so. Back to the point, I don’t understand why sugar doesn’t like my body. Or nuts. So the cookies on here today, I didn’t actually try. My roommate Steph did. So if they suck, blame her.
Anywho, wanna know about my weekend?! Of course you don’t. So I’ll tell you all about it. This is how it started. I went boating and got to hang out with my girlfriend Rhonda. She’s pretty rad. And good looking. Then Laura and I did a rope climb workout with our friend Clark at CrossFit South Denver and spent part of Saturday at the pool. Getting in the pool kinda sucked because of the rope burn I was blessed with from rope climbs. Then we made tostadas. Then we topped them with guac, beef, and lettuce. Then we ate them. Then we ate a balls ton of beet chips with guac. Then we watched ‘This Means War’ and laughed pretty hard. Then we went to bed. Oh, and I made a cooking video this weekend. So exciting. In retrospect, if I knew what that actually meant, all I did was tan this weekend. I have multiple tan lines. I even put on a swimsuit that I bought 2 years ago. Thank gosh it fit. Only 3/4 of my ass was hanging out. Keepin’ it classy. Everyday all day.

Juli, hilarious! If you didn’t have the heading or the chocolate chips in the pic or the recipe, I would swear that your cookies look like hamburgers! Yum! I’m sure these are delicious, though. Not like hamburger delicious, but like a good, scrumptious cookie delicious. Thanks and keep on blogging!
I wonder if you could sub raspberries for the blueberries – I do love them with dark chocolate.
I made these last night! REALLY GOOD! Slam dunked the spot.
How much nut butter do you think the 1 C walnuts made? About 1/2 C or less? I can’t do walnuts so want to try to use almond butter for this. I am not a cook so don’t want to guess and waste it. LOVE your site. I try basically everything and tell everyone about it. thanks for all the work you do!
Prob a lil less than a half cup

You’re right, they do look like poo when you put them on the pan. But they taste FANTASTIC after cooling down!! It felt like I was eating a cloud when I bit into it.
