These are my go-to cookies. The ones my husband is always requesting. The ones I wrap up to give to friends as a thank you. The ones I let my daughter eat because they are almost healthy.

Mmmmm, sounds delish. We're in need of a new almost-healthy cookie. Our old one got the boot for being... I think a little too healthy. I'll be letting you know if this can become a Super Gluten-Free Cookie Hero!
I haven't yet tried the recipe, but the title is awesome!
