What is wrong with butter, sugar and white flour?Sounds like it will taste like baby food to me. gross.
I have all these ingredients on hand, so I will give you the benefit of the doubt and make them today. If its gross I will report it back here.
Ok I made them:
here are my findings:
1. They are very small portions for your serving size. About the size of my thumb, and I have small hands.
2. They are soggy
3. They weigh 6 grams each bite. I can have REAL cookie dough that size for under 30 calories.
4. They were COMPLETELY disgusting. I added vanilla stevia just as you suggested as well, and it still didn't help.
Good luck on your journey, OP. :flowerforyou:

a real cookie thats packed full of additives and chemicals and 20 different ingredients half of which you can't even pronounce? It baffles me why people focus so much on calories instead of ingredients and nutrition.
I don't know what cookies you're eating, mine contain:
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups (about 12 ounces) semisweet and/or milk chocolate chips
I can pronounce all of those things, apologies if you can't.
I apologise I stand corrected. I assumed you meant shop bought cookies. But you'd still rather use butter and sugar and white flour? I made some sweet potato brownies today. Not a single unhealthy ingredient and no one in my family even realised they were healthy. There are ways around this problem.
Ok clearly we are not going to agree on this. Personally I don't see the point in baking with these ingredients when I can make just as tasty a cookies/cakes with healthy ingredients.
Those ingredients aren't unhealthy, there's no good food and bad food, there's just food and portioning.0 -

Honestly it baffles me that so many people focus on whether they can pronounce something. What on earth does my ability to pronounce a word have to do with whether or not it's good for me? Maybe I'm just ignorant and don't know how to pronounce things correctly.
All I wanna know is, IF most people cannot pronounce my name...does that mean I'm not real? <cuetwilightzonemusic>0 -

You are studying to be a Dietitian correct? First thing you generally learn is there is no such thing as unhealthy and food can only be healthful not healthy. Also, might want to learn about how to incorporate your client's diet into what can be a moderate and healthful diet. You'll have a difficult time when you have a client on EBT who has to decide between a gallon of milk for their children, a pound of meat to last them the rest of the month, or a bag of sweet potatoes. Best thing to learn is how to incorporate your client's choices into a healthier lifestyle. Just some unsolicited advice.
Oh an another thing youll learn in school is about food chemistry. Those were actually my favorite courses. We forget that only a century ago people were dying from food poisoning, water was undrinkable, and in 1840 Ireland was almost wiped out from a horrible potato famine. The advancement of food chemistry and science has helped to increase lifespans world wide.0 -

...are you comparing natural sugar to white granulated processed sugar? *face palm*
Here's an extra Palm to your face. Yes I am because white granulated processed sugar comes from a cane that grew out of the ground and had stuff done to it. Just like you do stuff to that potato when you Cookiefy it. You bake or boil it, mash it, mix it with other ingredients, bake it. In other words YOU PROCESS IT. Actually I have two hands heres another palm. :TripleFacePalmfor you: Do you have enough face left? Cause you might wanna try saving some right now?0 -

You keep comparing prepackaged foods to **** you make at home. You are the only one really making this comparison and it just doesn't hold water. Of course most items on the shelf have extra ingredient to help make them shelf stable. At least compare apples to apples.
Also, if you're talking special K bars a more appropriate comparison would be the Special K bar substitutes that I had to make for my son for school snack this week (he's also gf).
