We tried a new recipe for some almost clean ranger cookies and they are amazing! I just baked them on Valentines and I’m already wanting to make some more!
You know we try to eat “clean” around our house. Real food. Real ingredients like vegetables, fruit, and meat.
So for my valentines gift to my family, I decided to bake them some our our favorite kind of cookies and keep them as close to possible as clean as I could.
Ranger cookies are something my husband introduced me to years ago. They have a little bit of the best cookie ingredients in them.
Part chocolate chip, part oatmeal, part coconut, and part pecans!
These cookies come out thin and moist. They’ll crumble with every bite.
