This is the best cookie I have tried, to date, from the Trim Healthy Mama cookbooks. Hands down, the best!
The only thing I do not like about them is the name, Moisties. There, I’ve said it. I do not like the word moist, so why would I like the made up word moisties? I don’t.
Anyway, do not let my dislike of the name, deter you from making these cookies. You must make these cookies. One of my friends thought they tasted like Oreos. No one would know that they are made with a secret healthy ingredient. I did not tell people about them containing this ingredient until a friend decided after I told him what was in them, that he would say he was allergic to the ingredient… He wasn’t; but it sure gave me a good scare. So now, if I were serving them to you, I’d ask if you had any food allergies.
You will find this recipe on page 321 of the Trim Healthy Mama cookbook. It is a satisfying cookie recipe in the Sweet Treats chapter. The recipe says it will make 20 to 25 cookies. I have found that it usually makes more. Unless you eat a lot of the batter, of course. The batter is tasty. Very tasty. But the cookies are even better!
I have shared them with many friends and family. I have packed them in lunches and to go on trips. They have been to West Virginia, North Carolina, St. Louis, South Carolina, New York, etc.
Sometimes I put a cream cheese icing on them.
This cookie gets a the thumbs up review from almost everyone. If you haven’t tried them, try them. And please let me know if you like them.
Enjoy!
