I love this recipe and I think my girlfriends would like this for dessert at game night this week. However, school starts Monday and I’m not sure I will have time to bake but this will be one I definitely will try soon, yum!
Oh these look good too. I’m enjoying catching up on all I missed last week. I just love anything with zucchini.
Well, I give up Judy I looked everywhere and I still can’t find any place that sells seeds to grow zucchini oatmeal cookies? Think you could send me some? (lol)
Tom, You were just not quick enough. I pulled up the vines today and threw away the last zucchini. Wish I had known. I would have saved some of those cookie seed!
