CHRISTMAS COOKIES
Who doesn't LOVE cookies?
What I don't love is the abundance of sugar, oil and salt in most cookie recipes.
I want a sweet treat, but without the hangover afterwards. Am I right?
I just made these delightful little Christmas cookies and cannot wait to scoff myself with them.
In fact, if I eat the entire batch over the next few days, I will not care one bit.
These cookies are so healthy, you can have them as a snack with a cup of tea, or grab and go a handful for breakfast in the car!
They are chewy and delicious - full of all the lovely Christmas flavors including spicy ginger, warm apple and tart cranberry.
These Christmas Cookies are sugar, oil, and salt free- which means completely guilt free. YAY!
Make a batch for you and your family, or bag them up and give them as gifts to neighbours. Because they have no oil, butter or sugar, your friends can also enjoy them without compromising their health.
Did I mention that they are super-dooper easy to make?
