South Beach Diet Cookie Recipes
The great thing about the South Beach Diet is if you’re a food lover it’s the diet for you. The fact the get to snack is great. But the food also taste great, and everything is designed to satisfy your hunger so you won’t feed on heavy carb foods. This is why I don’t like to call it the diet but a way of life.
How many of us have dreamed of eating eating eating and still losing weight? How many of us have started our selves, or overfed ourselves with the same foods on some ridiculous fad diet? We can now basically eat what we want and still lose weight.
My favorite snack is cookies, so here are some cookie recipes that fit right into the South Beach Diet:
Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies
This will only take you about 15 minutes for prep time, 30 minutes total. This recipe serves 12, portioned in 2 piece servings.
This is a great cookie recipe which is simple to make and all it takes a few ingredients. The best thing is there is no flour. You will find that it has a deep nutty taste. It has little bit of fruit on top. Everyone will love this cookie. Beware they are so delicious that it is hard to limit yourself to one serving.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup sugar substitute (Granular)
1 L. egg
1 TS baking soda
1 C fat-free peanut butter
1 TS vanilla extract
1/4 C jam, use your favorite flavor but make sure it is sugar-free.
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine egg, sugar substitute and vanilla with a mixer which is set to low for about 4 minutes. Add baking soda and peanut butter. Mix until dough comes together. Form into little balls on the baking sheet about an inch apart. Make an indentation and fill the jam.
Put in oven and bake until the bottom is lightly brown which is about 12 to 14 minutes. Put on a cooling rack. Once they are cool, enjoy!
SOUTH BEACH DIET OATMEAL COOKIES

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Set aside for later. Cream the butter, sugar and Splenda in a large bowl. Add egg to the mixture. Mix in dry ingredients well. Add nuts. Add enough milk to make the consistency so that it drops from spoon onto the greased cookie sheet. You may not use all of the milk. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes.
These are both great cookie recipes. They are easy to make and they are a great snack.
