I'll be making some tonight. Interested to see how they work. The hardest thing will be making sure I don't eat the whole lot at once.
try them with cranberries and white chocolate :D
and apparently they work harder if you eat the dough raw ... I found it pretty gross raw, but it did seem to help.
and fenugreek pills or tea, and fennel tea too - fennel tea is delish!
Subbing for the receipe :)
Tori-Ella, have you noticed a difference yet? It took 24 hours for me to notice. I am not a huge milk producer myself, but I do notice a slight increase after eating these cookies.
These cookies are SO yum! I cant stop eating them. Its such a bad thing as they are definately very fattening!
Also I have heard that porridge (made out of rolled oats not quick oats) sprinkled with flaxseed and brewers yeast for brekky also does the job. I will be trying this from tomorrow and will let you all know. :)
Are these ok to eat while pregnant (and breastfeeding)?
Do they store well? I would like to make some and send them to a friend interstate, do you reckon they would be ok in an air tight container?
ta
Yep and yep.:
In other news, I ate too many, it would seem, and got a blocked duct. Whoops.
And, Isadora, the porridge definitely works. I used to do that and one small unfiltered beer a day, and the supply boost was huge.
just bear in mind that the raw dough has raw eggs, for the preggers ladies. That's a small risk of bacterial nasties (salmonella, etc). But eating the cookies is fine.
Ahh, good one Jenn. I use egg replacer, so didn't think of that.
I think I'm addicted to these cookies.
Oh, also, don't drop your phone in the mixture :duh: The speaker's stuffed :cry:
Sent from my iPhone so forgive the speelung misstacks ;)
:o oh! so that's what I've been doing wrong!!:
thanks, babe :D
Glad to have been of service :lol:
Those who aren't noticing a big difference, increase the brewers yeast and see if that helps.
Subbing for the recipe! Preggers and breastfeeding right now, I feel like I could use see purely for the caloric boost! But I will save them for after bubba is born, when i know I'll be genuinely ravenous.
I swear by these cookies, but as hubby and I have just started a low carb diet (trying to control sugars Augh!!) am working on a "low carb" variation - it's this weeks project :) If anyone's interested I'm happy to share the recipe :)
this may sound dumb buttttttt - when would you start eating these? like just before the baby is due or after bubs is born?
they sound delicious i want to make some now :D
You can make them anytime - they're good for healthy digestion as well as milk making :)

Yes please!:
Thankfully I haven't had any supply issues this time around - fingers crossed it stays this way!
Anyway, I made them with DD2 and they were brilliant. I also heard that Activite is good for your supply too so I ate my cookies and drank activite and my boobs would feel like they were going to explode! I recommended the activite to my sister and it worked for her too. It is so good to drink whilst eating the cookies.
