White Chocolate, Chocolate Cookies

I was searching for a double chocolate recipe that uses both white and dark chocolate and found one great one here submitted by Amy on allrecipes.com. I followed her recipe and i must say that the cookies does taste great! Also i added almonds in them and hence yield more than 36 cookies as mentioned in the recipe. I like crunchier cookies, so i baked them at 14mins instead of 8-10mins which yields chewy cookies. I have found another blog which has a similar recipe but equally interesting at Confections of a Foodie Bride, which is linked to Browned Eye Baker who said the cookies taste like immitation oreos, and in turn linked to Annie's Eats. This recipe of theirs contains no eggs..maybe i'll try this next to see how it taste.
