So~o~o. . .I baked some cookies!
One of my most enjoyable magazines is Tea Time magazine. While browsing the January / February 2011 edition, I came across a recipe for cashew cookies. I crave anything with cashews! ! !
"Mr. Ed" just likes nuts!
All the required ingredients are, basically, those in every household pantry.

1/2 cup finely chopped cashews
1/3 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
