I’m dying to try these super fast and easy, gluten and sugar free walnut & date cookies! How gorgeous they look with that little chocolate chip on top!

My friend Rafa is allergic to almonds. I almost died when I realized what I had done!

Oh yes, clearly they didn’t taste good at all 😉
Definitely great for anyone limiting carbs or sugar..
YUM! I really need to try those!
Me too!!
