GOOD FOR YOU CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Here is a great comfort cookie that you can feel good about serving your family. The light olive oil keeps the flavor light and doesn't add saturated fat! The combination of chocolate and dried cranberries is oh-so-yummy! (NOTE: the batter will look a little oily, but trust me...it works out great!)

SO GOOD (FOR YOU) OATMEAL COOKIES!
Due to making a deal with my sister to not have any SUGAR, I was forced to recreate some of our favorite treats, using natural alternatives! I'm happy to say...I like these better than the REAL DEAL! They are packed full of "good stuff", so you can eat them, guilt free (for the most part). In fact, my kids say that it's just too hard to only eat one! :0) They come out moist and chewy. You could, also, easily turn these into a great oatmeal chocolate chip cookie! So, have fun experimenting, and let me know what you think!
