Author Notes

This recipe was inspired from Meghan Telpner's Undiet cookbook 'Almond Power Cookies'. I have taken that recipe as my base and made a lot of changes by adding a whole lot of other ingredients. These cookies are filled with nutrients and are both chewy and crunchy at the same time. —Vaishali
