Since this was a fruit filled recipe, I didn’t feel guilty serving it for breakfast.  A funny bit—my son told me he loves having my giant sized fruit cookies for breakfast. I didn’t correct him and instead I granted his wish for another portion. Yes, I am sucker and easily manipulated with compliments. Flattery will get you everywhere with me.
