This cookies are perfect, and delicious. they come out soft, you eat them with confidence because you know what you put inside. Kids loves them. Give it a try and you will love it. I have tried it and my family loved it.
If you don’t like raisins, you can use dates, i have tried both and it was just perfect. I don’t put too much honey since my family don’t have sweet teeth. We don’t use sugar in my family, sugar is not good for health, it’s a sweet poison which many people do not realise.
You can use also mashed bananas as a sweetener in your bakings. It makes your cookies or bread come out soft and sweet. Sugar is addictive, that’s why many find it hard to give it up. But God gives us strength to overcome evil. Ask God in your prayers to help you discard sugar.
