Michelle I plan on making these cookies as soon. I’m wondering if I can cut back on the dry sweetener. between the brown sugar ( I would use swerve or dark coconut sugar) and maple syrup that’s already high .

I am looking at making these with fresh milled AP blend. Any tips you would recommend for a novice to fresh flour in baked goods?

In reply to Shelly M. I'd imagine so. Depending on what temperature it's being stored in, you might need to soften it up a bit before using it in your cookie dough.

Another winning recipe. What about tallow….would that work in place of the lard?

We grew up using lard in everything on our farm. These cookies look amazing!

Well, these sound delicious! I have never baked with lard and the addition of mint sounds great. Thanks, I am going to have to try this recipe!
