    I know what you guys like - chocolate and cookies! ME TOO!  In fact, my first blog was named The Cookie Lady Diaries (way back on Blogspot a million years ago).  

    If you've been following along, you know I went for a visit at Franny's Farm a few weeks ago.  They are a local hemp grower and inspired my recipe for Chocolate Hemp Seed Butter.  Hemp is a real superfood and seemed like the perfect ingredients for a cookie.  I also threw in some cacao nibs, which are full of antioxidants, so you're basically getting healthier every time you eat one of these cookies.  Don't they say, a cookie a day keeps the doctor away?

    If you don't have hemp seed butter on hand, you can substitute any chocolate nut or seed butter.  And nuts work great in place of the cacao nibs, too.

    I topped mine off with a little drizzle of melted dark chocolate and a sprinkle of hemp seeds.  They are super indulgent chocolate cookies, chewy and a little crunch.  YUM!
