GoGosqueeZ has supported Fit Kids Playground by offering all who attend our events a healthy snack! I have come to LOVE GoGosqueeZ products and have begun to experiment with them in other ways than just in my kids’ lunch boxes!
So this past weekend I attended a Pinterest Party and thought about what I could bring! My kids had been begging me to bake cookies and then it came to me! I always use applesauce in my baking! I wondered if others knew my trick too!
So here was the recipe that I created! Since it was so close to fall (my favorite time of the year), anything spiced sounded wonderful! So here is the recipe to the cookies I made! I love using applesauce in stead of oil in most of my baking! Makes me feel better about the treats I’m craving! Remember…everything in moderation!
