I'm allergic to chocolate, so I used white chocolate chips instead. The cookies were still delicious!

These cookies are really good, but they're a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little more flour next time.

I had some trouble finding graham cracker crumbs, but I finally found them at a specialty grocery store. The cookies were worth the effort, though.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using dark chocolate chips next time.
