Cookie Recipe for Diabetics: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bar Cookies
I always tell people that being diagnosed as diabetic didn’t take away my desire for sweets. You see, we diabetics enjoy having “sweets”, too. Here is a recipe that is suitable for diabetics to enjoy as dessert or when they crave a “sweet” snack. The Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bar Cookies are tasty and easy. And peanut butter is good for diabetics. Your local grocery store should have the sugar-free chocolate chips along side the regular ones. I buy Hershey’s Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips at my Walmart Store.

20-year-old Recipe for French Chocolate Silk Squares
I believe this recipe came from a 1989 edition of Woman’s Day magazine but I can’t be sure. It was listed in the “Eating Healthy” section because it has 1 1/2 tablespoons of oat bran in every square. Each square also has 188 calories, 4 grams protein, 26 grams carbs, 9 grams fat, 0 mg cholesterol, and 130 mg sodium. That is pretty good numbers for a dessert! This is great for family meals, co-workers, holiday gift giving, bake sales, church potluck, etc. Who doesn’t love the idea of chocolate and healthy all in one? Give these French Chocolate Silk Squares a try today and see just how well healthy and chocolate can be together!

Why not surprise your family, friends, co-workers, etc and break out of your mold this year. Try a new recipe or two–in fact, try an old recipe or two. And here are a couple of great ones to choose from. Both these recipes are from my vintage collection I inherited from my mother’s kitchen files.

1 can (16-oz) pumpkin (about 2 cups, if you cook your own)
