SUPER CHOCOLATE CHIPPER COOKIES!

Sounds like a dream, but it's true! These mini-cookies are so delicious and loaded with some of my favorite superfood ingredients. These superfoods provide essential vitamins and minerals, antioxidants, protein and energy!

Most desserts provide a quick sugar-fix followed by an inevitable crash. But these tiny cookies pack a serious punch. They will wake up your body and senses with no crash on the horizon. Why? They are vegan, gluten-free, well balanced, mostly fruit-sweetened, full of healthy EFAs (essential fatty acids), high fiber (so they digest more gradually), and feature a little mood and energy boosting secret ingredient called Maca powder.

Never heard of Maca?

Say "Buenos Dias" to Peruvian maca root and maca powder.

Maca is a Peruvian superfood. It is a root vegetable (similar in appearance to beets) that is sold in North America and abroad as a dehydrated food powder and also as a supplement. It comes in 3 varieties: white, red and black. White/cream maca is the most commonly grown and sold variety of maca and is what I use in today's recipe (and most of my recipes when I use maca). It is also the most affordable and easy to find variety of maca. If you have no idea where to purchase maca powder and would like to try it out you can purchase it online from several retailers. The type you should look for is "raw gelatinized white/cream maca powder".
