Chocolate Chip Toffee Lactation Cookies.

Lactation cookies are something I’ve only just been introduced to. After the recent birth of my fifth (yes, fifth!) little bundle of joy, a friend brought over some delicious oatmeal cookies that were baked with oatmeal, flaxseed, and brewer’s yeast to help with milk production.
I won’t lie – I was a little skeptical about how they’d taste, what with them being jam packed full of nutrition. But wow. DELICIOUS. So I set about to make my own. And? YUM. Also – while they’re intended to help milk production, they’re also just plain good and good for you. So go ahead and feed them to the kids and husband. Unless you don’t want to share!
