When I mix the ingredients for these cookies I thought I was a little crazy and I was going to end up with anything but a cookie. To my surprise they turned out amazing! Light, airy, crunchy and crispy with a hint of almond and chocolate... Perfect for a healthy snack and I bet kids will love them!
They are 100% grain free, gluten free, egg free and with no added sugar ...High in protein and healthy fats from the butter and coconut milk.
Here is the cake decorating set I used on this recipe. I used tip #32 to make these cookies.
