Guilt Free Dessert Cookbook as many healthy low carb recipes. I am demonstrating a couple of her recipes, Low Carb Chocolate Chunks (chips) and Low Carb Chocolate Cookies.
The cookies didn’t turn out exactly like they should have but they have a delicious flavor.
I put the chocolate chips in to the batter to soon the batter was still warm so the chocolate melted. The cookies were more like chocolate maroons and I thought they were quite tasty.
This Guilt Free Dessert Cookbook by Kelley Herring is a very informative and educational cookbook to help you learn more on how to eat healthier and why! I hope you enjoy this recipe.
