You bet, my dear friend. I think you need to stop off on your way back from Kim’s. I have a room all set up for you. XOXO
hey I was wondering if you could let me know like the factsabout these cookies like the amount of fat or sugar that are contained in them
Lilly, thank you so much for visiting the blog and commenting. I listed the information above for you. It’s not one of my healthy recipes. Hopefully, I will be sharing more healthy desserts in the future, especially now that I have lost more than 67 pounds. I need to maintain my weight-loss and stay healthy. Cookies are my ultimate favorite foods/desserts. Even though I am limiting my sugar, a splurge now and then will happen around Christmas and my birthday. It’s everything in moderation. When you limit your sugar intake then eat a cookie or piece of cake, I cannot finish it. Desserts tastes too sweet.
hi do you think you could tell me the fat concentration and the amount of sugar in the cookies I have friends who are diabetict and watching there weight so if you could tell me that would be great have a nice day
Hi Lily, the would not recommend these cookies for someone that is diabetic. It’s high in sugar. As much as I love cookies, watching my weight and sugar content too it’s a splurge a couple times of the year when I have sweet treats. A standard box of Betty Crocker Strawberry Cake Mix (13.25 oz) typically contains 18g of sugar per serving, according to the box label. There are approximately 60 grams of powdered sugar in 1/2 cup. The Cool Whip Original contains has 8 grams of sugar per serving and I used the entire tub. You could cut the sugar contain down using the sugar-free version.
The fat content would be listed on the labels as well. Betty Crocker Strawberry Cake Mix contains around 4-8 grams of fat per serving. Assuming a box makes around 18 cookies, the total fat in the mix would be roughly 68-96 grams. An 8 oz tub of original Cool Whip contains about 8-12 grams of fat. One large egg contains approximately 5 grams of fat. Powdered Sugar has no fat. Approximately 87 grams of fat for the entire batch. Note this is an estimation based on the cookies yield and the information the food industry has on the labels.
Hope this helps you.
