Do you love cookies? What is your favorite flavor or texture? Let me know in the comment box below, but for now, I'll share one of my favorite cookie recipe with you. Mixed Nuts Cookies.
Unlike other cookie recipes on the internet, you'll find that my cookie recipes have less sugar. I assure you these cookies are tasty and the sweetness is balanced.
Making Mixed Nuts Cookies.
These Mixed Nuts Cookies are soft from the inside with a slight crunch from the outside. Melting the butter enhanced the flavor and added that chewy texture.
Although this is not a low-calorie cookie, it is still lower in calories than your average cookie, which is 140 to 125 calories, and it will not spike up your sugar level.
I've used cashew and almond but you can use your favorite mixed nuts.

I didn't like this at all. Mine came out very cakey and definitely not enough nuts even though I added more. I won't make them again.

Hi Mary, sorry the cookies didn't come out right for you, but if you decided to give it a second try, bake the cookies for lesser time and if you like more nuts feel free to add a bit more to the dough. Let me know if this helped.

Good cookies, not too much sugary. My nut mix included cashews, almonds, pecans and hazelnuts. I've also added a bit of chia seeds (they add a nice crunch to the mix) and black sesame seeds.

My wife loved them so much that she requested I bake another batch. I bake them a little bit less like you suggested above and add some freshly ground cardamom seeds for aroma.
