Truly Healthy Cookie

My girls and I are on a baking kick! With the cooler weather and halloween coming up, we are drawn to the kitchen for some yummy treats! Of course, we only want to make the healthiest treat though. After much experiment, I feel like I have the most delicious and seriously healthy cookie recipe! I am so excited about these!

These cookies are gluten free, low sugar and have great protein from our Shaklee protein and nuts!  I’m especially excited about one ingredient:  Coconut Flour. You can now find this at your health store or grocery store’s organic section.  It’s great for gluten free baking!

Please try it and let me know how it comes out for you?
