Naturally Pink Pillow Cookies

Darn food dye. I hate that stuff! With a host of side effects including ADHD and other behavioral issues, I just can’t stand giving my kids food and candy with food dyes. Of course, sometimes it’s unavoidable. 

I wanted to come up with a cookie recipes that we could use for Valentine’s Day without using food dyes. These cookies are SO yummy and are only tinted naturally with beet juice!
