Aunt Paula's chocolate chip cookies

[dit]

A friend recommended these to me. They are delicious - taste like chocolate chip shortbread. Supposedly they have .62g carb per cookie (that's without the other ingredients added; the added ingredients include shortening, butter and and egg).

However, these are so good that I could not control myself when eating them. I was craving more, and the calories add up quickly.

Sounds delicious!

Where do you buy these?

I got them through locarbdiner.com

Be forewarned, I did not lose an ounce last week. These are so good they are dangerous

Carb count

I went to the website, but I did not find the actual carb count. Do you know what the carb count is per cookie, adding the sugar alcohols in? (In other words, taking the total carbs, minus the fiber, but not subtracting out the sugar alcohols.)

Thanks,
Donna

I bought a package of 4 low-carb cookies, they were peanut butter cookies, but they had chocolate chip too... they were at my local grocery store with some other low carb products. (I also bought some Atkins peanut butter cups and holy BOO were they DELICIOUS!!!!! $@#$#)

I am still convinced they are poison though because after I eat stuff like that I just want more and more and I figure when that happens it just can't be good.
