These cookie bars are great for your holiday parties!
These cookie bars are: Gluten-Free and Vegan
Is anyone else also obsessed with cookies like I am? They are my fave go-to dessert to bake. Not only are these bars so easy to make, but they are also great for when you want something with as few steps as possible. Perfect for those late-night cravings or when you end up stress-baking!
This recipe uses mostly whole foods ingredients and is much better for you than your average cookie bar full of inflammatory oils, saturated fats, and processed sugar.
Now, these still do contain sugar so please enjoy in moderation! I try to keep my sweets to less than 10% of my diet, but you do you.
