'tis the season for tasty treats!  Allow yourself to indulge in dessert, just keep in mind portion sizes.  Here is my favorite cookie recipe.

*Nutrition Tips:

• Fiber: using whole wheat flour and oats increases your dietary fiber consumption.  Fiber improves your digestive function and can help prevent diverticulosis and colon cancer as well as decrease cholesterol and regulate blood sugar.
• Organic: after comparing the food labels, I choose organic foods to reduce the amount of added preservatives and saturated fat.

*Recipe: 
Cream in a large bowl

• ¾ cup softened organic butter
• ⅓ cup organic chunky peanut butter
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• ¾ cup granulated sugar 

Add and stir until smooth
