In reply to Courtney. I'm sorry this recipe was written quite a while ago and I've not tested with coconut flour.

can you replace the flour with coconut flour?

In reply to Aimee. I'm really surprised by that. My kids loved them. What did you use for the erythritol? I used Swerve brand. Is the chlorophyll you purchased with mint in it by any chance? Which brand of stevia did you use and how much?

I am really bummed! Everyone was so excited. I made them for my daughter’s girl scout Halloween party. My three children spit them out and my husband said they were edible, but that I shouldn’t send them to the party. They tasted like bitter chlorophyll and excess stevia to mask the bitterness. I am going to try another batch with less chlorophyll and stevia. I think it’s worth losing a little green if it will make them taste better.

In reply to Heather+//+girlichef. It was the hubby who suggested them since our youngest is allergic to nuts I can't use almonds.

I love that you colored these with something that was natural! Also, what a great idea to use pumpkin seeds for the nails!

You are a great example for your kids. I bet you are helping them develop their taste buds. These fingers are amazing and I had to pin therm!

Brenda I agree wholeheartedly that if you deny your kids all sugar it will certainly backfire. Your common sense approach to simply changing their tastes with the healthy food you make day in and day out, and not freaking out about one day when they eat some candy with sugar in it is just the perfect balance. Likely it’s more about the fun of collecting the candy anyway and they will be happy with just a piece or two, and willing to have the rest stashed away in the freezer “for later”…for me that means secretly throwing it away a bit at a time when no one is looking haha! 😉 I’ll never forget a kids party I went to one time many years ago–one child who wasn’t allowed sugar treats began gorging on cupcakes and candy like there was no tomorrow while the mom was not there. That memory has always been a great reminder to me to try not to make anything totally forbidden, but rather teach good choices and common sense. I’m certainly not perfect, but that’s the goal anyway. Cute cookies, what a fun mom you are! I’m sure they will go over big at the cub scout party! 😉
