Skinny Snickerdoodles

Growing up, every year around the holiday our mom would ask us what kind of cookies we wanted to make. Liz’s reply was always “SNICKERDOODLES!” Needless to say, she loves these little bites of heaven. We’re not sure what our mom’s recipe was, but we do know it was probably loaded with sugar and butter. Since this is Liz’s favorite childhood cookie, we had to make a healthy alternative we could enjoy this holiday season.
