COOKIES!!!

Any cookie with "mix-ins" is good enough for me!

We went on a "Cookie Walk" today - 3.1 miles, 36 stores, 36 cookies. But Steve can't eat any of them! So we're making him some sweet potato breakfast cookies, and they look better than some of the chocolate chips cookies I got today (not that I have anything against you, chocolate chips. I just prefer your snickerdoodle cousins!). We also got one cupcake from the bakery. YUM! 

Anyway, this recipe from The Paleo Mama was easy (after I shorted out the microwave trying to melt the coconut butter to usable consistency) and offers endless possibilities! 

Sweet Potato Breakfast Cookies

1/2 C coconut butter
1/2 C sweet potato
1/4 C maple syrup or honey (we used half of each)
2 eggs
1/2 tea vanilla
1/2 tea baking soda
2 tea pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tea sea salt
2-3 cups of mix-ins (we used cacao, pecans, coconut and raisins) 

Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 350
2. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl
3. Drop onto parchment papered baking sheet. 
4. Bake 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Ours made 15 cookies (we needed two sheets!)

Plus, they're good for breakfast! It's in the name!
