A "healthy" cookie does taste awful. When I developed diabetes I tried making many "non-fat, non-sugar" treats. Forget it. There is no such thing. They are God-awful. So I just stopped eating "healthy" cookies, etc. Maybe three times a year I do eat a couple of Oreos and enjoy them. When I test my sugar after the Oreos, it's a little high. But when I eat steak for dinner, the next morning my glucose monitor flashes an alarm because the reading is so high. And nobody seems to be going after the beef industry -yet. Where will it all end?

My mother in law has some *great* sugar free recipes she uses to bake cakes for a few diabetic friends of hers. If you are interested, next time I visit her I can copy a few of the better ones for you and freepmail them to you. Just freepmail me if you want me to do it. She lives about 4 hours away so it may be a month or so before my next visit but I don't mind getting a few for you if you want them. She's a great cook and has many many many books of recipes. She can point out the ones for me that actually taste good.
