Sweets can be a hard thing to balance. We all get that sugar rush when we seriously need a sweet fix. Whether it be at 11:00 a.m. in morning or 10:00 p.m. at night. However, the problem with sweets is, we don’t always want to have something unhealthy and full of processed sugar.

Although we also can’t ignore this sweet craving. So I guess the question is, “What do we do”?

By scrolling through food blogs and cooking websites I have found some delicious healthier dessert recipes. These recipes are great alternatives from traditional desserts. These are the foods that I like to make when I need something sweet, delicious, but also healthy.

Many Celebrities have jumped on this trend of healthy baking. For instance, Karlie Kloss is an advocate for healthy baking. On her Youtube channel, she takes traditional sweets and makes healthier versions of them. Many of her recipes are dairy-free, gluten-free, and sugar-free.

The two recipes I have below are two of Karlie Kloss’s healthy cookie recipes. Both are vegan, gluten free, dairy free, and have zero added sugar. Oh, and did I mention they are absolutely delicious. So next time you need a sweet fix but don’t want something unhealthy, try making either of these!

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
