Choco-Pomegranate Cookies

Nate bought a pomegranate today, and I could think of nothing better than to smother these healthy little ruby seeds in dough and chocolate ;)
Enjoy!! Recipe courtesy of the Coconut & Lime blog, 'veganized' by yours truly :)

Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup flour
1/2 cup vegan butter, at room temperature
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
1 eggs worth of egg replacer (I used Ener-G)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
6 oz semisweet chocolate chunks
we added 1/2 cup walnuts

Directions: Preheat the oven to 350. Line 3 cookie sheets with parchment paper. In a medium sized bowl combine flour, salt, and baking powder. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg replacer and vanilla and combine thoroughly. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the sweetened butter and mix until a very thick dough forms. Use a spoon to fold in the chunks then the pomegranates and distributing both evenly. Form cookies by dropping 1 heaping teaspoon of dough on the sheet two inches apart. Flatten slightly then bake until light brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool on wire racks (if you can wait that long) then serve with plenty of cold 'liquid-of-choice' (we had soy milk).
