That is so cool. I made something almost like this last week. I was trying to come up with a healthy alternative for Jason, the human cookie monster. I didn't add oatmeal, but that's a great idea for more fiber. A few chocolate chips are really tasty, too.
ReplyDeleteMy mom used to make pumpkin cookies and they were healthy enough to have that be our dinner. I'll have to make these for my kids. They'd get a kick out of that!
