It’s Friday and the kids just got out for christmas break. The holidays are in full swing and it’s time to get baking! These cookies are seriously OUT OF THIS WORLD. I have been making a constant batch weekly for the past couple months and they don’t seem to last more than a day. They are so delicious, it is hard to believe they are actually pretty good for you. Grainless and gluten free, yet still moist and bursting with flavor. You are going to love them!
