If you were to ask me my favorite food, I would hands down say a cookie! Of course, I am picky, it can’t be any old cookie but a GOOD cookie where a moment of silence is needed for. When I first was told to try out the FODMAP diet to help with my IBS symptoms, I knew the first recipe I needed to succeed in redoing were FODMAP cookies. I have priorities and cookies were mine! But can you blame me? There is nothing like a comfort of a warm cookie!
When my husband and I were in the Amalfi Coast this summer, dark chocolate gelato infused with citrus was everywhere! I had a light bulb moment go off in my brain where I knew these same flavor profiles would be perfect in a cookie!

* I followed this recipe to make candied oranges. My tip would be to constantly stir the syrup and oranges slices as it can burn easily.
