Send us a Text Message.Yes, you read that title right. Let us explain! This week on Three Kitchens Podcast, Heather tells us about an article she read wherein the author states they prefer chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate chips. Sounds a little too plain for our tastes. Let's discuss what to add to these cookies as a chocolate chip alternative.  After trying two cookie recipes and a few different add-ins, Heather comes up with a recipe we liked a lot and two front runner add-ins: dried kiwi and chopped dates. These are both great alternatives to chocolate chips, especially if you like a chewy sweet, almost candy-like addition to your cookies. The kiwi was cut into small pieces and dehydrated not quite all the way to ensure they hold up to baking but keep a little moisture in them. The seeds in the fruit add a nice texture, too. Dried dates were chopped into small pieces and then tossed lightly with cinnamon before adding them into the cookies. These got a sprinkle of sesame seeds before placing them in the oven. If you like raisin cookies, you'll love date cookies!  What would you put in your chocolate chip cookies instead of chocolate chips? BONUS COOKIES! Erin tells us about an amazing Norwegian shortbread cookie made with dandelion flowers. She also made them with juniper berry. We adored them both!   Episode Links~~~~~ Bon Appetit Article: What is a Chocolate Chipless Cookie?~ Kiwi Cookies Recipe ~ North Wild Kitchen~~~~ Three Kitchens Podcast - a home cooking showCheck out our website where you can listen to all of our episodes and find recipes on our blog: www.threekitchenspodcast.comYou can support the show with a small donation at Buy Me A Coffee.Want to be a guest?
