Hello Lovelies,
I’m back with an amazing Butternut-Persimmon-Spice Cookie recipe and I’m so excited about it. They turned out so well and as a plus-point they are even fat-free (if you choose icing option 2). Since my Buddha Bowl Book Project keeps me really busy, I’m keeping it short.
One statement: What would be Christmas without Cookies? Like no Christmas?!
This Butternut-Persimmon-Spice Cookies are perfect because they are really healthy so you can enjoy them without any regrets and still have a great Christmas dinner afterwards :).
