These are excellent. I made these for a week I needed to be on a low fiber diet, but they could be made with whole wheat and nuts for more nutrition and taste. I made the icing with almond butter and melted chocolate chips to get the nutty taste in there.

This recipe was given to me by a friend long time ago. It is impossible how easy it is. I tough many kids and even some men to bake this, because it is fool-proof.
The final product will give you a pudding, topped by cake, because the ingredients separate whilst baking! smile
sorry, but I'm not familiar with oz, hence I only added 1 ingredient into the top-box
This a modified version of a recipe in the Ultimate Cookie collection by Taste of Home under the name Chips Galore Cookie. I reduced the amount of chips and nuts as I found the original difficult to mix.
I've been looking for something to keep with me for when I've let myself get busy and forgotten to eat. As I was looking through recipes for granola bars, nearly all of them had problems. Some had too much chocolate and would melt in this Florida heat. Some had too much sugar or added fats. Some were just plain boring! So I improvised a few things and this is what I came up with. The applesauce really binds the bars together well if it's done right! These are not low calorie, but as I struggle to eat enough calories, my main concern here was making sure to include as many nutrients as possible.
Stash these wherever you think you might need them: in your gym bag, kids lunches or sports/dance bag, in the car, before heading to the beach or on a long walk... very handy and way better for your body than all the preservatives and processed junk in commercial granola bars. Give yourself something tasty and nutritious for your new lifestyle.
I adore a good chocolate chip cookie, but these were too indulgent, so I've skinnied them down a bit so I can eat two! :)
These German pancakes come from my great great grandmother in Germany. It doesn't get any better than this! If you are using an iron skillet for this, then use Crisco to grease the skillet in between each pancake. If you have a German friend that can show you how to make these, then it's easier to learn when you see it done.
Yield: 15-20 pancakes, double or triple the recipe as necessary!
This is a great low fat muffin I have for breakfast or put in the kids lunch.
I used to crave this back when I was in college with little extra money for baking supplies... I tell you, it's not exactly the same thing, but for a pick-me-up midday when you're broke (or on a diet), it can't be beat!
This is a good way to play with your kids and not worry about them eating the playdough!
