You can’t have too many cookies like these around. Polka Dot Cookies have healthier ingredients and a lot of delicious texture inside. I love to throw cookie recipes together.
It’s easy to control the ingredients and have a sweet snack in the house within minutes and I didn’t even have to drive to the store. Yes, I love cookie dough too but I still try to go through the whole process and bake them.
