PASSOVER CHOCOLATE MANDELBROT (NO FLOUR, BETTER THAN BISCOTTI)
Modified from a Canadian newspaper - this is AMAZING stuff! The best description of texture I can give is that this is not totally dry, but it's still crunchy. You will be questioned if it's really Kosher for Passover, you will be questioned how this is possible to make without flour. It's possible AND it's delicious, just try it! Don't half this recipe, it makes a lot, but they will fly off your table! Try variations like cranberries and your favorite nut or dried cherries and almonds instead of the chocolate chips and walnuts.

CHOCOLATE CHIP MANDELBROT COOKIES
Mandelbrot in Yiddish literally means "almond bread." The twice-baked cookie made with oil and almonds dates back to 19th century Eastern Europe. There are many variations made of different dried fruits and nuts. My chocolate chip version is more modern-American. -Kimberly Scott, Kosciusko, Mississippi

Tips:
- To make the mandelbrot extra special, try using high-quality chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the nuts by hand.
- Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
Conclusion:
Chocolate mandelbrot is a delicious and festive Passover treat that is sure to please everyone at your seder. With its rich chocolate flavor and crunchy nuts, this cookie is a perfect way to end a Passover meal.
