This healthy raw hemp cookies recipe was shared with us years ago by Manitoba Harvest, and I thought it deserved a refresh. It was created by Kristen Suzanne, author of numerous raw food cookbooks. Unlike traditional cookies, these have a doughy bite, are shaped like truffles, and are downright nutritious. You can enjoy them for dessert or as healthy snack bites on go!
