These cookies sound interesting, but I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to try them. Brussels sprouts in a cookie? I don't know...

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cookies turned out really flat. They didn't look anything like the pictures.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I highly recommend this recipe!
