We
were expecting some company yesterday, so I tried a “new to me”
cookie recipe recently posted by nutritionist, Julie Van Rosendaal.  
| Flourless Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk A great cookie recipe by Julie Van Rosendaal  | 
On Tuesday mornings, I enjoy listening to Julie on the Calgary Eyeopener on CBC Radio One.  You can listen to her here.  She's also the author (or co-author) of six cookbooks, a freelance writer and creator of a great food blog, Dinner With Julie.
Flourless Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookies – what an
extraordinarily long name for a cookie!  
Think
“crisp oatmeal cookie with yummy overtones of peanut butter and
chocolate” - very tasty!  In fact, they were given a gold seal of
approval by my “testers”.  I'd definitely make them again.
NOTES:
I followed the recipe as written, using chocolate chips (rather than
chunks) and chunky peanut butter (the only kind allowed in our house)
instead of smooth. The recipe makes about 3-4 dozen.  They really do
spread, so space them out on your cookie tray.  Based on a
question/answer in the comment section, I put some of the dough
(shaped into balls) in the freezer to bake later as needed.
| I love that little gadget!  A lot less messy than scooping up dough with a spoon. Freeze the balls of cookie dough separately so they don't stick, then pop in a container.  | 
I have never tried making anything flourless but they do look yummy!
