Nice change of pace for a healthier cookie! Loved the dates, apples and nuts in this cookie. Because others stated it was a bit dry I was not overly concerned with totally draining the liquids from the fruit mixture and left a few tablespoons in there and that seemed to work for me. Moist and delicious cookie with a great texture that stood up to storage. Loved the fact that these are sugarless. Plan on making more for my Dad as a special treat that won't affect his sugar levels. Made in honor of those we all have loved but have lost through cancer during the Think Pink tag event. Love ya Bren!

this is a cookie?!? to me it tasted more like a muffin. it was not bad, the taste was not terrible. however i planned on serving it to guests as a COOKIE. if i am going to indulge in a COOKIE, i want it to be worth the calories. to make this one palatable (to guests who are not health freaks), i had to put a pumpkin glaze on it. two stars. not awful, but definitely not making again. save your calories for chocolate.
