I'm putting this recipe here because I keep losing it. Also, it's another easy diabetic-friendly recipe that people might enjoy having. Who doesn't love chocolate? It's delicious and in the right quantities it's very healthy for you. While they say dark chocolate is better, I'm a fan of milk chocolate. They do make sugar free chocolate, but it's usually loaded up with sugar alcohols, and we all know what those do to your intestinal tract.

One of my favorite things in the world is chocolate chip cookies. How could I live without them? Well, fortunately, I don't have to. Here's a recipe I'...
