Healthy Cookies Exist!

If you’re wondering if something gluten free, dairy free and sugar free can taste good... the answer is hell yes!

It’s a rainy and dreary day here. And honestly my emotions were feeling the same. I knew I needed to step into my kitchen for some kitchen therapy but I wanted to make something sweet that wouldn’t make me feel the yuck. I found a recipe that sounded good but tweaked it to make it completely gluten + dairy free and used natural sugars to sweeten it up. Topped with sea salt? OH so dreamy.

I hope you give this recipe a try. I bet if you made it for friends, they wouldn’t even be able to tell you tricked them into eating something delicious and healthy for them.
