It is always fun to use up the spent grain in different ways, add texture to cookies and bread and see if the taste changes!
I always consider spent grain free, but when i think of electricity and time to prep and get it all stored and ready, i chuckle at myself!

- Bake on a lightly greased cookie sheet at 425° F for 8-10 minutes.

- Remove from oven and cool on the pan for about five minutes.
- Carefully transfer to cool on a wire rack, or they may cool on the pan.
Verdict:
These are interesting. One would think that peanut butter and chocolate are the best combo, but these are a bit lacking. Hubby enjoyed them and they stayed moist in a container.
If you try these let me know what you think.
