For the past few weeks I have had quite a sweet tooth. Making cookies and treats like Ginger Snaps, Cobbler, and lots of smoothies! Getting kind of bored of those, I went in search of a new and exciting recipe. I can always trust that Karina over at Gluten Free Goddess will have something yummy that at least I can have! (She has been at it a lot longer than us 😉 ). Usually with a little tweaking here and there, we are able to make all of her recipes allergy free.
The weather has been really weird this year, last week we were in the high 80’s and dry, this week we are in the upper 50’s to low 60’s and wet. Not that I am complaining, I love the cold wet weather. But with it being wet and cold outside, I wanted some nice warm cookies and some Almond Milk!
The cookies came out good! Next time around I will be sure to sweeten the espresso more, because they came out a little bland.
A little rolling in powdered sugar solved that problem though!
