-jaw drops- -cries because they don't exist here- :'( :'(

You haven't tried them that way? You HAVE to! They get so chewy, and just absolutely amazing!

I've made something fairly similar. It's an Oreo crumb crust, then a peanut butter filling made with peanut butter/cream cheese/whipped cream/powdered sugar, then chocolate ganache on top. I went the extra mile and put more whipped cream on top and then sprinkled it with chocolate flakes. It's VERY good!

These are AMAZING frozen. I can eat a whole box out of the freezer when I get my hands on them!

I'm kind of shocked that you haven't seen it, since it's already made its way all the way over here to Saudi Arabia! I was VERY tempted......

Odd, I thought it was you in the dirty eaters thread who said you tried the Trader Joe's brand and thought it was grainy. Now I'm wondering who that was!

I see that you took my advice on switching to the Lotus brand of cookie butter, Tami! ;) How do you like it now that you've switched brands? :smiley:

Assalamu alaykum! You're over-thinking this a little too much. Remember the reason that you're fasting, and lessen your focus on food. :) 1000 calories is too little, even if you are small in stature--if you're undereating, you're more likely to have a hard time during the fast and an even harder time trying not to eat the…

Just to add to this, a good friend of mine has an anaphylactic reaction to dairy. If she had picked the cheese off of a pizza and then ate the bread and toppings, she would die.

I've been wondering the same. As I read through this thread, anytime someone asks or answers that particular question, someone flags it. I have no idea why, since nobody can expect people to read through almost 1100 pages to search for the answer to that question somewhere in there!

Bumping this awesome thread! :smiley:

It's a machine with quick-spinning multiple metal pincers that rip the hair out by the root... By the hundreds. I may have made this sound like a torture device. It is. ;)

When I freeze and then thaw my sliced bread, it gets lighter by about 1 gram per slice. Nothing to worry too much about. If you really want to know just for kicks, weigh a frozen bagel, let it thaw, and weigh it again.

My Mom had a dream like that once. She woke up so mad that she shoved my (still peacefully asleep) dad right out of the bed onto the floor, yelling "and WHO is LISA?!!" He was suitably bewildered.

Welcome back, we hope you'll stick around! :smiley:

You just have to cut your pie-half in half and then you can still get the benefits of the calorie releases. :D

I really wish we still had the "Awesome" button, because some of these are so hilarious that "Like" just doesn't cover it! My contribution from a family member: "Butter is fine on a dairy-free diet, you just can't drink milk because it's an enzyme." And those of you with celiac disease will LOVE this next one, from the…

@WinoGelato I gave you an Inspiring, because I'm a baker and cheesecake is ALWAYS inspiring! :joy: Edit: And on the subject of cheesecake, I once made a cheesecake using the crumbs of the cookies they use to make cookie butter (Lotus/Speculoos). I find it so much yummier than graham crackers because it's so much stronger…

Bumping this. :)

I get this if I've overeaten a lot on carbs. I get super bloated, and the water retention causes that bruised feeling in my upper arms, thighs, and belly (basically the fattier parts of me!). It goes away after eating normally for a few days in my case.

Personally, I wouldn't dare use these as a dip. They're so strong that they taste fairly terrible on their own, a lot like those gross bright red cinnamon candies called "Red Hots" or something like that. Melt them with white chocolate or white chips (these are vanilla flavored) and use only like 25% of these in it, and it…

I make an amazing cookie butter "fudge" by mixing crunchy cookie butter with cinnamon, allspice, a tiny bit of salt, and the Hershey's vanilla chips. I bet that would be an amazing coating for a cookie butter flavored Oreo!

^ Agree with this.
