Newsgroups: rec.food.recipes/JANIC412

1 cup shortening
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt

To make the chocolate glaze:
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 Tbsp shortening

Heat oven to 375F. Beat 1 cup of shortening, the brown sugar and honey in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed or mix with a spoon. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt (This is where I would add the cocoa for the chocolate cookies). Roll half of the dough at a time 1/8-inch thick on lightly floured cloth-covered surface. Cut into 2 1/2 inch rounds or squares. Place 1-inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are firm. Cool 1-2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.

To glaze:

Melt the chocolate chips and shortening over low heat stirring occasionally. Drizzle over the cookies.
