Cacao Nib "Boo" Cookies

Cacao Nib Cookies 🧡 There’s a lot of sugar floating around the Halloween season, so I created these Cacao Nib Cookies for a healthy Halloween treat. They are naturally sweetened with dates & figs and lightly dusted with cacao powder for a rich, chocolatey flavor. It’s a delicious way to celebrate the season while still making choices that nourish your body.
