Wow, these are a total winner! I made them gluten free using buckwheat bran flakes instead of the wheat germ and gluten free all purpose flour, and they turned out fantastic. Baking time was 14 minutes, and as I usually make very small cookies, I got 60 of them. Also I reduced the sugar to 1/4 cup of white and 1/8 cup of brown sugar - personal preference, I always cut the sugar back in sweets. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!<br/>Made for Think Pink Game 2012.

As the daughter of an American Diplomat, I grew up traveling the world and enjoying a variety of wonderful foods. My mom, an accomplished cook with great French culinary skills, sat me on the counter as a toddler and encouraged me to experiment in the kitchen as a very young person.
About 10 years ago, I followed my boyfriend --now husband -- when he went veggie. While I still eat some seafood, I love vegetarian cooking! My favorite dishes involve complex world flavors and the finickiness of French sauces.
My non-culinary interests include Africanist anthropology, travel, yoga, and scuba diving.
