With only 4 ingredients you can make these delicious and healthy cookies. The following recipe is base on every cup of butternut squash mash.
Ingredients:
1 cup of butternut squash pureé (peeled, cut into chunks, and then boiled or baked)

1 tsp of vanilla/almond essence (optional)
Pinch of salt
Optional: shredded coconut, cinnamon, chocolate chips, raisins, seeds, etc.
