Author Notes
I have a no fail chocolate chip cookie recipe that I have been making for years from Cooks Illustrated. Recently in the winter months I have been craving warm gooey cookies but wanted to satisfy my gluten- free friends (a population which seems to be growing) while also using up some of my granola toppings. A great chewy cookie with pumpkin seeds, peanuts, dried blueberries, cacao nibs and coconut is the perfect hybrid cookie- it healthy enough to keep guilt at bay but delicious enough to satisfy on snowy days. —Brita
