I don’t know about you but when it comes to getting creative, it’s always better with a friend! Recently I have been chatting with a new friend from a little blog called The Banana Diaries! Her name is Britt and has a real talent for making things taste and look amazing, not to mention that she is super outgoing and matches my energy level to a tee!

We have been talking about collaboration on a recipe together and we decided that today would be the day! Well, we decided a few weeks ago and then put in the work, and THEN posted about it today…Anyway, we decided it would be best to make cookies, and since it’s the holiday season we instantly thought soft-baked ginger and molasses cookies! Sturdy enough to withstand a dunk in milk, easy for any baker, and so delicious you don’t even realize they are gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan-friendly!

SO after a little bit of creativity in the kitchen and using our trusty cameras, we are delighted to bring to you Ginger Molasses Cookies!
