Smart Cookie
I spend a lot of evenings alone with my girls because my husband is often working late or on call at the hospital overnight. My daughters and I look forward to our special girls’-nights-in. We love to put on matching pajamas, watch princess movies, play games, and eat yummy snacks! I am always looking for new treats to surprise them with, and of course it’s a bonus when I can feel good about eating them as well.
As you may be aware, I’ve been known to make more than my fair share of donut runs and my girls definitely inherited my sweet tooth! While I’m certainly not a total stickler for nutrition, we have been trying to limit our sweets intake to items that are not overly processed and made with real ingredients. We recently discovered Nonni’s Chocolate Chip Artisan Thin Cookies and we are addicted!
These cookies are made with premium dark chocolate (with 55% cacao), crunchy California almonds and Sri Lankan coconut. Unlike the typical chocolate chip cookie, Nonni’s Chocolate Chip Artisan Thin Cookies are low in sugar, fat and carbohydrates. They are also portion-controlled in individual packets, with each packet averaging around 100 calories, which is important so mama won’t eat the whole box!! They’re available in three flavors to suit any mood, including Almond Chocolate, Double Chocolate and Toasted Coconut.These chocolate chip cookies are the perfect sweet and crispy accompaniment to my glass of Cabernet and the girls’ chocolate milk. You have got to try this deliciousness!
