{lactation cookies+generally healthy for anyone cookies}

One of my favorite things about breastfeeding is that it gives me an excuse to eat these amazing oatmeal chocolate chip cookies! They are seriously SO good! This recipe makes a cookie similar to the brand Milk Makers. They have the cutest logo. It is an M, made to look like two boobs :) I have to say, I was skeptical that these wouldn't do anything, but I really am convinced they work!

1 cup butter                                    2 cups flour

1 cup packed brown sugar             1 tsp baking soda

1 cup sugar                                     4 tbsp brewers yeast

4 tbsp flax seed meal                      1 tsp salt

5 tbsp water                                    3 cups quick oats

2 eggs                                             as many mini chocolate chippies as you want :)

1 tsp vanilla

Here is the quick version:

oven @ 350

mix flax and water and let sit a few minutes

beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar together

add eggs and mix

add flax and vanilla and mix

combine flour, brewers yeast, baking soda and salt in a seperate bowl
gradually add to wet mixture

stir in oats and chocolate chippies

scoop onto cookie sheet in generous mounds, I like to use parchment paper underneath

bake for 12-15 mins

cool and enjoy a bounty of breastmilk :)

and if you arent a nursing Mom eat these anyway! Flax and brewers yeast are good for everyone!
