todays experiment: walnut chocolate chip cookies
I followed the old nestles toll house recipe but replaces the flour amount
with one cup and one fourth carb quick and half a cup almond flour and half
a cup flax seed meal.
The 2 cups sugar was one fourth real brown sugar and one cup splenda and
half a cup sugar alcohols a blend of xylitol and sorbitol.
I used walnuts and 60 percent cocao chocolate chips
To make them more moist i used a fourth of a cup heavy cream.
The result was delicious..if not a bit too sweet for my taste..i could have
reduces the sugar alot i think because the almond flour adds a sweetness so
does the chocolate chips.
One issue i had was the flax meal made them too crumbly...i think i could
have use one more egg or used powdered milk and omit the flax i just wanted
the flax to be more healthy like..lol.
So this experiment was a great success!... i can eat about one big cookie
and then im very satisfied.
Im gonna try making nut bread next.
Oh and of course i did a ton of testing today and my max bg all day was
110..even after meals and the cookies i snacked on.
Of course what works for me may not for another etc..
