Notes

To make in WildSide+ or FourSide jar, increase ingredients by 1.5 (see below) and follow instructions above. You may need to stop blending and scrape sides down if cavitation occurs.

½ cup chocolate chips
The cookies actually taste pretty good. They don’t have any added sugar so don’t expect that kind of taste.
I baked the rest of the cookies at 300° for 60 mins. It’s a long time to bake but it was the only way I could get them to be crunchy and not fall apart.
Happy Blentec’g.
Cheers!
I had a similar experience. Too much dry for the Blendtec even when scraping the sides as suggested. I rolled them into little balls after handmixing them and tucked them in the freezer. We’ll see how they come out!
How’d they come out?
Tasty?
Yes. Better in smaller portions because they’re so rich. Kid approved too!
Great Stuff!
