Nice texture and very tasty
This was the first dessert recipe I made in my new Vitamix 7500. Cleanup (even with peanut butter) was very easy, and the cookies rose beautifully. With the wheat / white flour mixture, the texture was a bit denser and the nutty flavor lent itself well to the peanut butter. Very happy with both results and equipment!!
