Hard to believe that it’s going to be Easter here in a few days…
I think for most…this Easter will be very non-traditional and different and that is okay!! Maybe not for some or those who don’t celebrate. We all have to adapt in one way or another this year and that’s life sometimes. Around our house it is about a nice dinner and so that is how it shall be, and definitely dessert!
On a whim recently I decided to try a cookie that is one of my favorite breakfasts or dinners,lol! French Toast but in cookie form. These are filled with flavor, they are chewy and crispy, just perfect! The topping adds so much more to this cookie but you could also just roll it in sugar if you don’t have cereal on hand or not a fan of the cereal.
