Look how cute these cookies are. Only 5 ingredients for the cookies and 2 for the frosting! The cutest Valentine's Day treat. My mom told me these were her favorite thing I've baked :) My favorite thing about these has to be that the icing is NATURALLY colored with raspberries. They came out amazing!

• 1/3 cup apple sauce

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1/4 cup coconut sugar
