We’re swinging from one end of the cookie dough spectrum to the other. Last week I covered Pillsbury cookie dough, which is often on sale and makes classic, purely indulgent cookies. But this week, I’m adding Sara’s Cosmic Cookie Dough to our product listings, which is wholesome, vegan, gluten-free, low-glycemic, worthy of eating raw or baked, and a bit of a budgetary splurge.
Sara’s Cosmic Cookie Dough is a Star in the Healthy Sweets Space
I actually find the name of this cookie dough a little ironic. Sure, you could use several “out of this world” puns, but this product is actually quite down to earth. The ingredients are simple, natural, and downright ancient without a glimmer of anything artificial or futuristic.
