changed my afternoon snack because I was so hungry. I had 3 small cocoa/flax cookies w/2 TBSP cream cheese icing. I may have to have an evening snack if my hunger doesn't go away. i feel like i could eat everything in site today.

How do you make the cocoa/flax cookies? Do you use golden flax?

Kelly: I found the cocoa/flax cookie recipe on these boards sometime ago. These are JadedOne's recipe. They are a FAVE of mine!!!!!

Cookie ingredients:
2 eggs, beaten
1 Tbsp vanilla
1/3 C chocolate or vanilla SF DaVinci
1/4 C cooking oil
1 C ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp both baking powder and soda
3 heaping Tbsp baking cocoa

Frosting ingredients:
1/2 pkg cream cheese, melted
1 Tbsp cinnamon
3 packets or 1/3 C pourable Splenda

NOTE: MIX BY HAND; DO NOT USE BLENDER.

Directions:
Mix eggs, vanilla, DaVinci, and oil by hand. In a separate bowl, blend the flaxseed with the baking powder/soda. Combine dry ingredients with wet, mixing by hand. Fold in 2 heaping Tbsp cocoa to mixture and mix well. Once mixed, add the final heaping Tbsp cocoa to mixture, should be thick like cookie dough.

Drop by spoonful onto greased cookie sheet (I used parchment paper). Place into preheated oven (350) and bake 9-12 minutes (mine were done after 9 minutes).

When cooled, add frosting (cream cheese mixed with the cinnamon and Splenda) ... or if you can't wait til they're cooled, like me, put a cookie in a bowl and get a little forkful of the frosting and eat it all together with a fork.

I plugged it into Fitday, with the exception of Splenda (don't have a box handy for counts).

Total for entire recipe is 1,561 calories, 136g fat, 45g carbs, 36g fiber, and 50g protein.

So, if you get 15 cookies from the recipe, call it 104 calories each, with 9g of fat, 3 carbs, 2.4g fiber, for a net carb count of 0.6g per cookie. That's with the frosting but without the Splenda count.

Maybe someone can help with the Splenda. Either way, a good source of fiber.

*I don't use the splenda in the icing. I use SF syrup either vanilla or caramel.
