Remember a couple weeks ago when I visited the Allspice store in East Village, Des Moines? I bought a small bag of cocoa nibs while I was there, but I didn't really know how I would use them.
A couple weeks later, I found this recipe for Oatmeal Walnut Cocoa Nib Cookies from Joy the Baker. Finally, a great recipe to try out the cocoa nibs. And this was a great recipe. I love a good oatmeal cookie, and the cocoa nibs added a nice coffee-like kick to these treats. If you don't have cocoa nibs at home, then you could probably just add dark chocolate chips, or just stick with the semi-sweet chips. Either way, these are a good go-to cookie for snacking.
I hear you can also use cocoa nibs as a topper for yogurt or oatmeal, but I thought the flavor was too bitter. But they were perfect in cookie form!
I'm always on the lookout for new cookie recipes. Thanks for sharing, these look so good. Especially on a day like today...BRRRRR
