HIGH PROTEIN OATMEAL COOKIE
A high protein snack any time of the day. Without a lot of sugar, that lets you down an hour later. That is what the working men in the family wanted. So this is what I made, and they liked it. I pack 3 to each lunch box, along with the sand'wich and fruit. They all said it was just the right amount to get them through the work day. High protein, a low carbohydrate snack with high firber.

Now put the ingredients for the cookie in the mixing bowl and mix together for 4 minutes on low speed, Now add the water from the apricots (Apricots Juice ) and mix for 3 mintues, and then let set for 30 minutes so the dry can absorbe the wet,.
- Now start droping the cookies with a #40 ice cream server into the topping mix and roll them once, then place them on a cookie sheet.
- I use a 12 X 18 cookies sheets and place then 3 x 5.
