Does anyone know of any healthy cookie recipes or healthy "bar" recipes? My sweet tooth gets CRAZY (ESPECIALLY aroung "that time") and I end up stuffing my face with those store bought, name brand cookies that send my calories SOARING :sad: ! If you don't have any of your own recipes, can anyone recommend a good healthy recipe website?

THANKS EVERYONE :heart:

    somethings things are suppose to be "unhealthy" and cookies may just be one of them... i like my golden oreos every so often as a treat. i know the health food stores sell protein cookies but those are probably just disgusting...



    Nice progress pics OP keep up the good work...

    Mmm...i like larabars for a cookies substitute, but your mileage may vary.
    Their basic recipe is take dates and some nuts and then..say chocolate chips
    and mush it together into a bar.
