Healthyman cookies


Wheat and Oat cochochip cookies


The utterly butterly aroma of Cookieman cookies invariably makes people shed their weighty inhibitions and get ready to attack those yummy golden brown fresh cookies at any number of malls across the country.

I decided to try something that is not quite that sinful on the girth.

Roasted wheat flour and oats


Everything goes into one pot



Convenient sized cookies on foil

Here is the recipe:

Wholewheat flour with bran(Atta) 1 small cup
Quaker's oats 1/2 cup
Sugar 4 teaspoons
Chocochip -1/4 cup
Butter 50 gms
Hung curd 2 tablespoons
Milk-- about half a cup
Vanilla essence-- a few drops


Roast the wheat flour and oats together, till you enjoy the aroma of roasted wheat.Take it off the heat.
In a blow, mix sugar, butter and hung curds till smooth, add vanilla.

Empty roasted wheat flour and oats onto this, toss the chocochips, and make into a not too stiff dough, using milk as required.

Make small balls, and press them into cookies of the desired size, on buttered sheet.I made a dozen.

Bake till the edges turn deep gold, and the rest of the room smells of good home made cookies.
Keep to cool,  and store in a cookie jar.

Feel proud of your effort, and enjoy without feeling guilty that you are taking in too much sugar or too, too much fat.
