Skinny Monkey Cookies


So today I am doing a repeat recipe for dinner, yummy Butter Chicken...delish!!! So I thought I would try out a little cookie, well my daughter is really going to be the one making them. They look delicious, sound delicious and at 1 weight watchers point per each, they certainly are tempting!

Going to try this out today during nap time and will come back later with the turn out and some pictures.


Okay, so tried the recipe and they are definately missing something....probably the non skinny part...lol...they need to be sweeter, good heated with ice cream. That said, I did eat my fair share, lol! Will possibly try again but add some agave or Splenda or something the recipe.

INGREDIENTS
3 bananas
2 cups old fashioned oats
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp. vanilla
