Cookies are Delicious for your Soul

Hello wonderful people,

How are you doing? Hope all is well for you.

I thought I’d mix things up a bit and today I’m sharing something delicious for your soul, my new cookie recipe 🙂

A couple of years ago I found out that I have IC (interstitial cystitis) and my diet became very restricted, lots of things I cannot eat like spicy food, sugar, chocolate…and I don’t like taking medication so right now I’m able to control it with eating the right foods, foods that nourish me, are good for me, and keep me in a healthy way.

So one of the things I started doing is baking my own cookies with ingredients that are good for me. I use mostly organic ingredients and I substitute carob chips for chocolate chips, and I use organic, raw, unfiltered honey instead of sugar. The honey is really enough to sweeten the cookies to perfection.

Recipe:

Pre heat oven to 350/360 bake for 15-20 minutes, depends on your oven, and have all ingredients at room temperature before you start.

2 cups organic whole wheat flour

½ tsp baking soda

A dash of salt

1 stick organic unsalted butter

½ cup of organic raw, unfiltered honey

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 organic eggs (whites only)

1/3 cup carob chips

1/3 cup organic golden raisins

Mix the dry ingredients together, set aside.

Whip the butter until fluffy.  Add the honey and mix together, add the vanilla and mix, add the eggs and mix it all together.

Then add the dry ingredients and mix with spatula, when all is mixed add the chips and raisins and mix it all up.

I bake them for 20 minutes, at 360 degrees, I like them more well done.

These cookies are so delicious I can’t stop eating them. I have one after dinner every day, I honestly don’t know how I have the willpower to eat just one, well there are times like last night that I had 2, couldn’t resist 🙂

And I got this from my son, when they cool off, put them into a Ziplock bag and into the freezer, when you’re ready to eat one, microwave it for 30 seconds and whala tastes like it just came out of the oven.

Hope you try this recipe it’s really delicious. Leave a comment love to hear from you.

Have a wonderful day!

  1. Thank you for sharing, Masha! They look delicious. And how wonderful that you’ve been able to take control with diet versus having to go on meds. I truly believe the right food is like medicine sometimes . . .

  2. These look delicious! Thanks for sharing the tip on freezing them and microwaving them when you want one. They’ll last a lot longer that way. Plus, if cookies are on the counter in sight I’m going to eat them all! LOL

    That’s great that you are able to control the disease without taking meds. I hate taking meds, too. Sometimes I feel like the meds give us more problems, then we have to take meds for that, too! It’s a never-ending cycle.
