Two of my favorite flavors in one cookie!
2-1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon cloves
2 eggs
¼ cup soy milk or nondairy creamer
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 cup chopped toasted almonds
Optional: 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, cinnamon and cloves. Whisk together eggs, soy milk and ginger and add to flour mixture. Stir until well combined. Stir in almonds. Divide dough in half and form loaves. Place on greased cookie sheet. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce heat to 300 degrees. Slice loaves into ½-inch slices and return to oven. Bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool. If desired, drizzle with melted chocolate.

looks great. do we use whole or crushed cloves?
Unless otherwise noted, we always refer to ground cloves.
There is no oil or margarine??? So, if I use egg beaters, this will be no added fat besides the almonds?
That is correct; we will have to mark this as one of our healthy items!
