~ Fall Cookies <3 <3 <3 ~
Don't let the hearts fool ya, these cookies are not for you people in a hurry ( or with a big sweet tooth)!!! These cookies took me awhile...probably because I was procrastinating watching lifetime movies, but c'est la vie!!! Don't worry though I'm not leading you down a sketchy path, these cookies ARE good, healthy, and they'll stick to your ribs!
* RECOMMENDATION: This recipe requires a wee bit of time and preparation, make your flours and such before hand. Also I only used the purred carrots and added a scoop of pumpkin, because I found it odd that Pumpkin Cookies didn't have any pumpkin in them......maybe that's just me! Don't be afraid to put your own twist on this! I avoided the organic route, because I'm a sinner, and added some vanilla extract and brown sugar to sweeten things up a bit!
~These cookies are satisfying, vegan, gluten free, and %100 open to YOUR creativity!!!!!!!!!
-----My Advice: The recipe may look hard but seriously don't make your life harder than it needs to be!!!!!
