A great new recipe for the holiday from the Kosher Guru
Cinnamon and raisins are an amazing combination. These ingredients also just scream Jewish New Year and Holiday Season along with the season of fall. These cookie bars are also made from dates which gives this cookie the sweetness not to mention is one of the foods we eat on Rosh Hashanah to give us a sweet new year. There is no added sugar no flour and yet I find this cookie to still be amazing. If you don’t believe me, just try it. It’s also a takeoff from Dini Klein of Dini Delivers who made this in a chocolate chip version. Since I was craving cinnamon and trying to eat healthier I played around and came up with this amazing twist on her already fabulous date cookie bars. They also freeze pretty fabulously and there is no guilt when eating them, I forget that it’s a healthy treat. I hope you all have a sweet New Year can’t wait to see what this New Year will bring!!
