Pipernilli Cookies Review and Giveaway!

By

banana chiffonYou should know, that one of things about being pregnant, is that it seems the “Id” (or the part of your brain controls basic urges like eating and sleeping according to Dr. Freud), takes over.  Case in point, I received a beautiful box of gourmet vegan cookies from Pipernilli to review for Chic Vegan.   According to the Pipernilli website, these cookies are “made with fresh organic fruit and vegetables such as sweet potatoes, bananas, carrots, apples and strawberries. Pipernilli cookies are soft baked and gourmet. Each recipe is Vegan – using the finest non-dairy chocolate, vegan sugar and non-dairy butter.”  Sound good?  I thought so too.

    I adore fig bars! Not a typical choice I know. But my kids love them too. It makes cookie buying very easy 🙂 Runner-up: shortbread cookies. But I haven’t had them vegan yet…

    I love butter cookies. So the challenge for me now that I’m a vegan is to make them to melt in the mouth like those from that blue tin, lol.

    My favorite cookies? Too hard to decide! Anything with peanut butter or espresso are definite wins though! 🙂

    I love them all…as of right now I’d say chocolate peanut butter no-bake is calling my name!
