After a long weekend of family parties, and amazing food, I’m due for lots of fresh salads. However, my chocolate cravings can’t go away over night. Here is a dark chocolate cookie that is sweetened simply with bananas, and optional pure maple syrup. Gluten free and dairy free, these are guilt free too! Go ahead and pop a couple for breakfast with fresh fruit and a glass of milk, or as a healthy snack.
