On the 24th, my daughter Meadow turned 4. She goes to pre-school and they celebrate birthdays. So I made some special birthday chocolate chip cookies to take to her class. Let me say that there is some processed sugar in these. Not much, but I bent my normal rules because it was her birthday treat. I do allow my children to have treats once and a while, and a birthday is an occasion where a healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe that bends the rules a little is in order.
This healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe would be a great transition for those looking to eat healthier versions of sweets. It’s sweeter than I normally would make, but if you are used to super sweet cookie recipes, this one is a great stepping stone. Everyone loved them. They are also gluten free and nut free!
