Just wondering how many carbs there are in one cookie?
Wheat Germ has Vitamin E~
Would love to make this but have Celiac disease. Substituting my flour doesn't always work. Glad others can use this recipe though. They look yummy.
I have loved this recipe since I found it on a calendar back in the late 90s! A friend has introduced me to the world of milled flax seed and chia seeds. Can you tell me if I would use these with the flour ratios or would I use these to replace the wheat germ? Has anyone tried one of the many different flours out there?
These are really good cookies. I am a cyclist and they pack well for long rides as well. I do use half the amount of choc chips and double the amount of walnuts and like it better using dried cherries (cut smaller) than raisins.
These cookies were easy to make and easy to bake. I work in the Health Ed. and Nutrition Dept. and the faculty loved them. I will definately make them again.
This is a great nutritious and satisfying cookie. I used raisins and dried cranberries. The family loves them. My family doesn't usually eat anything but chocolate chip cookies. These are better than any energy bar. You can't go wrong.
I have not been able to find toasted wheat germ at my natural food store. Can you suggest a brand, or do you toast the flakes?
A common brand of wheat germ in stores is Kretschmer Wheat Germ. If you can’t find (or eat) Wheat Germ, a substitution is ground flax.
I just figured out the calorie content - if you make 2 dozen it's 350 calories per cookie.
They are yum.
