Alex & Dani's Light and Crispy Cookies

  • Got these at Big Lots. $1.99, 15 cookies in the box. They are small biscottis, 2 1/4 in X 3/4 in. Yum! 1 point per piece! I got the Totally Chocolate (Choc cookie w/ choc chips). They also have Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin and Hazelnut.

    They have no preservatives and easily pronounceable ingredients . My TC's have unbleached unbrominated enriched flour, sugar, choc chips, eggs, butter, cocoa, baking powder, natural almond extract, natural vanilla extract, vital wheat gluten and salt. That's it!

    Price is a little steep for me, but they are worth it! I like them much better than the Barry's French Twists.

    I got the oatmeal raisin today. I needed something for later and forgot to bring a snack today. I haven't tried them yet, but I had read the post earlier and when I saw them I remembered it would be a good choice. There are so many things I can't have - it really makes me sad sometimes. Of course, in real life when people eat junk food they are not healthy and usually are overweight. On TV it just never appears that way.

    thanks!
  • Hope you like them! I went a little nuts yesterday and ate 5 of the TC . I was still able to stay at 21 points for the daym though - yay!

    I'm almost out, so I need to go get some more. I don't like raisins, though. Are they easy to pick out, or are the chopped up and mixed in?

    I liked the cookies a lot, you probably won't B able 2 pull out the raisins - they were little crunchy pieces.

    Got to tell you something funny. I sure couldn't eat too many of them. I couldn't get them out of the package. Of course, it wasn't all that far to grab a pair of scissors, but after I had a few I just gave up. Since I can be a real cookie monster - that was a good thing for me.

    I hope to make dessert pizza this weekend. I've had a craving for that lately & lots of nice fruits this time of year would be perfect for it.

    Peace
