Recipe By:Marvincent Acuña (Vince)”A simple recipe for purple yam cookies. These taste awesome! They’re very soft and cake-like in texture. These are dome-shaped once they bake. You can flatten them as desired. This is a flexible recipe. You can add a teaspoon (or more) of baking soda instead of baking powder if you want a thinner cookie. I think you can top these with some white chocolate chips after baking.”
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup white sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
