Note to self...
you are not hungry....you are just TIRED! That is what happens when you wake up at 2 am and workout...speaking of that.....good job, no GREAT job! I told you getting up and working out was a good idea...didnt I? Just laying there in bed when you can't sleep anyway....bad idea. I like the no excuses plan you have set in! Great job! Since we are in the patting yourself on the back kind of mood. Good job tracking this week. It really does make a difference...you make a difference!!!! This week is a tough one...a lot of Holiday...well, crap going on. Not only our retail business, but our jewelry line..(wow)!!! and the catering business! (this is also when the "no excuses" line/little plan comes in handy.) You are doing well with all that is going on....NO this is not an excuse to go crazy and binge this week, it is about trusting yourself, and living in the moment.
Do you talk to yourself???....are you your best cheerleader???....if not, maybe its time. Just remember to put a POSITIVE spin on it...as well as being honest with YOU!
This is a time of year we forget "us" Please do not. This is when all hell brakes loose! Stay in control! I find a little self talk always helps me...give it a try!!
Love and best wishes to you for a wonderful Christmas and a healthy ~ happier New Year!
Chewy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie....ooohhhhlala
•1 cup Better’n Peanut Butter
•3/4 cup all-purpose flour
•1/4 cup rolled oats
•1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
•1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
•1/4 cup peanut butter chips
•1/2 cup liquid egg substitute
•1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
•1/2 cup granulated sugar
•1/4 cup Turbinado sugar
•1/4 cup canola oil
•4 tbsp fat free plain Greek yogurt
•1 tbsp vanilla extract
•1 tsp baking soda
•1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
1.Preheat oven to 350°F.
2.Beat Better n’ Peanut Butter, oil, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until the sugars are blended. Beat in egg substitute, yogurt and vanilla until combined.
3.Whisk flour, cocoa, oats, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture until blended. (It will be sticky.) Stir in chocolate and peanut butter chips.
4.Using a small cookie scoop or slightly rounded tablespoons of dough, place cookies 2 inches apart on un-greased cookie sheets.
5.Dip the bottom of a glass in water and then in Turbinado sugar. Use the sugared glass to flatten the cookies slightly, leaving a thin layer of sugar on top, re-wetting the glass as needed.
6.Bake the cookies in batches until they are just set and the tops appear cracked, 8 to 10 minutes. (Do not over-bake or they will be dry.)
7.Cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Quick Notes
Turbinado sugar is a coarse looking sugar and is light brown in color. Find it in the natural-foods section of large supermarkets or at natural-foods stores.
