Well, here it is, my attempt at a breakfast cookie. Actually, my son made this. He used the recipe and made two cookies for 3 points each instead of 1 cookie for six. He added more chocolate chips to his cookie, but I thought the amount was good in mine.
Consistency: Not quite there. Not soft, like a store-bought cookie. Not smooth, either. It was just okay. I was out of applesauce, so we used NF yogurt instead. That might have changed the flavor a bit. I think next time I'd add a bit more Splenda as well.
I'm not that good in a kitchen, and I don't know how to tweak this to make it better. I'd like a version closer to store bought.

Thanks for your post on my blog. The cookie looks good to me. If you haven't taken a look at my protein bars maybe they are something you and your son might like, kind of like a really dense cake.
ReplyDeleteFrom reading a post you did a few days ago I agree that the weight is definitely a mental thing. I think it's tough for a lot of people to come to that realization. We definitely have to fix our minds as well as our bodies or we won't ever be able to keep the weight off.
Good to have you here.
What a cute looking cookie! :D
