These were sugar cookies, so they just have unhealthy white flour.Polly @ Pieces by Pollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14007874028607140568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337476563591469885.post-92218901914900068522010-02-19T09:33:27.466-08:002010-02-19T09:33:27.466-08:00I love this idea, Polly.

And I love Alex's idea of making them into individual cookie blobs before freezing.<br /><br />BTW, you can put 2-4 tablespoons of whole wheat flour into the bottom of the measuring cup, and then top it off with white flour. It doesn't change the cookie much, but it does make it a little healthier.<br /><br />Anybody have "healthy" cookie recipes?Kathy Hayniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08128459743012799948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337476563591469885.post-44371201001015702332010-02-19T08:03:41.531-08:002010-02-19T08:03:41.531-08:00This is great!

After they are good and frozen you have nice little patties/balls that you can place in a freezer bag and pull out however many you want at a time to bake...since there are just two of us at our home, sometimes I still can't justify making a whole dozen! :)aleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15192573959559354171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337476563591469885.post-39247861434134116812010-02-19T07:37:03.790-08:002010-02-19T07:37:03.790-08:00Haha!

I remember Bryan's mom (I think) mentioning when we were out at his parents' house for Christmas once that we all had to finish off the treats before we all left back to our own houses or else she'd pick at them little by little and eat too much junk. I was still working at the time and didn't really get it, but now being at home all day I TOTALLY understand. A little nibble at something throughout the day turns out to be half the pan of brownies by the time your husband gets home! Great solution here Polly. :)Katie Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02726633446710833979noreply@blogger.com
