My dh was recently diagnosed at high risk for diabetes ... and although he has cut back drastically on his sweets (used to be 2 Cokes and a HUGE bowl of ice cream 5x a week between 6pm and bedtime... plus more on weekends...plus Coke at work) ....

However I am supposed to do my yearly cooking with my friend ... we do this EVERY year ... my dh didn't want to take care of the kids and their activities while I went to bake with my friend because as he said "I can't eat any of it anyway" (so in other words why would I want you to bake and give it to other people?? .... little on the selfish side I would say) ...

So............ has anyone made Sugar cookies (and frosting) before that is just so darn good that no one could believe it was for a diabetic???

Please please!! Share your recipes for Sugar cookies and any other dessert you may have made ... I am afraid if I try a so-so recipe or one that isn't very good at all ... he will just throw in the towel and go back to his sugary ways.

I'd really appreciate any diabetic dessert or cookie recipes you have made and enjoyed. Thank you!
 
I've used a recipe the past three years from a Splenda cook book, but it's at my mom's right now. I'll see if I can find it this afternoon.
 
I would love to know too! This is our first Christmas with my hubby being diagnosed as Diabetic too (he was diagnosed in January) - and he has the exact same attitude - I'm not allowed to bake because HE can't eat it.
 
I just got an email from mypoints.com about a diabetic holiday recipe book. You have to sign up to get it, and I don't want to sign up and get on yet another mailing list. But when I clicked on it, the following page came up. This thread came to mind, so I thought I'd share.

If you would prefer not to click on the weird looking web address link, feel free to pm me with your email address and I'll forward the email I got to you. :)
