I have been missing my "Tried it Out Thursday Posts", so I figured today was a good day to get back on track with a great recipe!! I have a HUGE weakness for soft and chewy sugar cookies! I have tried several recipes in the past but none have quite got the chewy texture that I like. When I saw this recipe over at Healthy Eating for Ordinary People I had to try it out. My findings were THESE COOKIES ARE NOW MY FAVORITE!! They are soft, chewy and very delicious. In fact I had to give most of them to the neighbors otherwise I would of eaten the whole batch.
