      Hi! I made these and was just wondering what the storage and shelf life is for them?

      Thanks! They are great!

      Made these last night and they were EXACTLY what I was craving, they tasted like a slice of funfetti cake. Although, mine hardly spread at all, they stayed little domes. I didn’t have cream of tartar so I left that out which didn’t seem to make a difference because the cookies were super “cakey” and fluffy. I also only used 1/2 cup of sugar. Not sure what needs to be done differently for them to spread like the photo.

        Hi MacKenzie! I do recommend the cream of tartar, as it’ll help the cookies achieve the right texture.

    Delicious, nourishing
    and totally doable!
