Talking poor dh, but had to laugh

I made the best LC no bake cookies, but I used malitol as I wanted to use these up and figured this would be a good thing as I would only be eating small amounts because they were a little bit higher carb than most treats I make

I mostly use xylitol as it has less effective of bodily functions LOL
I would love to use splenda but it gives me a very bad headache!!

but they were so yummy, tasted just like the real thing, I warned my DH to only eat two a day or he would be in trouble, he said ok and proceeded to eat 5!!

and proceeded to run to potty all night!! LOL I shouldn't laugh but I warned him, he said they tasted so much like the real thing he couldn't stop eating them!!

I told him that this is a good thing of SA they limit how many you can have and force you not to binge on sweets( well you can binge if you can handle being on the pot all day LOL)

my husband has since banned all malitol use in the house LOL
I promised not to make any more delicous treats that he couldn't control himself with LOL

I just had to share It was so funny

Ok I am not sure where I got it..just one of those surf days LOL

I would use xylitol...it comes in same form as sugar...comparable usage as well....I found mine at a health food store...but I have seen it online as well

these were my favorite before I went on lc...so I was glad to see a recipe come out...they are a little on the high end as the oatmeal...but I save them for I deserve a treat day

No bake cookies
2 cups splenda( I use xylitol)
2 sticks butter-unsalted
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup no sugar coconut{optional}
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups keto oatmeal
1/2 cup whippimg cream


mix cocoa,splenda,butter,whipping cream in a pot,bring to a rolling boil for 1 minute.remove from heat add vanilla,peanut butter,coconut,oat meal.
drop by tsp on wax paper.makes about 30 cookies.ENJOY!!

I put mine in the fridge to harden, normal no bake cookies dry quickly, but these seem to take longer.

enjoy...but remeber if you use sugar alchols...limit yourself to two a day LOL

Xylitol is packaged as Miracle Sweet where I buy it (GNC). I think it is terrific - expensive, but it lasts a long time.

I am not sure exact carb amounts, i kind of eyeballed it at something between 3-6 carbs per cookie(depending on how big you make them)

this is not an exact amount could be a little more, probably depends on the oatmeal you use...

hope this helps...

Yippee! (not about your DH of course) but about the cookies!!! I've been hoping to figure out how to make those since I started. They're my favorite too!!! I think I'll have to make them for Mother's day too. I wonder what would happen if I tried it with splenda. Then I could eat more, hehe. But of course that darned oatmeal has to have carbs. I wonder if I can cancel out some of those carbs with added fiber, like inulin or flaxseedmeal without ruining the flavor. Hmmm, then I could eat more. Annie
