Now that my kids are getting older they really enjoy helping me cook and bake. As soon as I start I have two chairs already pulled up next to me so they can watch what I am doing. As my almost 3 year old says “I’m only going to look, not touch.“ Ya, I train them well 🙂
This recipe is made with whole wheat flour, honey, and coconut oil. I really love coconut oil so I suggest you get your hands on some. It has a great flavor, is heat resistant, and is easier to metabolize than any other saturated fat or oil. I also use butter extract which I do not use often, but in times like this gives that buttery flavor without the additional calories. If you do not have any, they will still turn out great.
They are delicious! Couldn't stop eating them!
Wow! A cookie recipe I might actually make! I really appreciate the low sugar level in these.
These were really delicious! Only thing was that the dough was a little too soft and sticky to roll out, so I froze the whole thing and rolled it out when it was firm. Can you tell me why you freeze them before sticking in the oven? Also, I couldn't get the dough to roll out thin enough, so mine were puffier than yours. Love your blog btw!
I also had it in the freezer before i rolled it out and it firmed up too much so it might be a good idea to just place it in the fridge a bit to firm up so it is easier to roll, good idea! In terms on why I chill the dough. Well most sugar recipes call to chill the dough and when I looked into it it seems to be so that the flour absorbs more moister and you don't end up with runny cookies. I think it really does help it keep its shape. Thanks for sharing and so glad you enjoyed!
Definitely going to make these!!
Def gonna try these!! Yum!
