My youngest daughter described these cookies as ‘the yummiest cookies you have ever made”! They are SO delicious, you will find it hard to hold back on these yummy cookies. The base recipe is paleo, grain free, and refined sugar-free. But these can easily be made to be GAPS friendly and I have included notes to do so below.
