What do you guys think, are they helpful or does it not really matter? Healthy Homemade Fig Newton CookiesĮither way, you need to make these cookies. #Fig newton how toI’ve been trying to take more how to steps in my photos because I know they help me a lot when I go to look up a recipe. The cookie part of this recipe is based on my recipe for frosted flourless thumbprint cookies so I knew the dough would be good on its own too! I just used my extra dough to make a long cookie log which tasted amazing. You will likely have extra dough since you will need to cut the ends straight to make a rectangle after your roll out your dough. You’ve really really got to line the fig filling straight down the center and fold over each end, then close your seam. Originally I tried to flip the dough over in half, but that didn’t work. The key to making these cookies is how you fold the dough. Half of them looked like little minifig pies and the other half just looked weird. The first batch tasted pretty good but looked weird. You know the saying if at first, you don’t succeed, try again… and I’m glad I did! Speaking of cookies, these are literally AMAZING!

This morning I was thinking about how I literally can’t wait till I don’t have to get my ass up out of bed, down some cold brew and get out the door with the pup before it’s blazing hot. If I were going to complain about something it would be the heat, which now seems incredibly mellow dramatic. As I said, my heart and prayers are with all of you.
