About this Crunchy Cookies with Dark Chocolate Covered Cacao Nibs Recipe
To make crunchy cookies you would normally add nuts. Instead of nuts, these crunchy cookies use sweetriot baking ‘peaces’ which are cacao nibs covered in dark chocolate. Cacao is another word for cocoa. Cacao nibs are the dry-roasted pieces of the cocoa bean. This is sweetriot’s cookie recipe that is on the back of the baking ‘peaces’ bag. Note: sweetriot baking ‘peaces’ are not suitable for those with peanut/nut/sesame allergy.
