• 3/4 to 1 c of sugar substitute (to taste)
• 1 tspn of vanilla

Get a medium mixing bowl and mix everything together. Place spoonfuls of the dough onto a cookie sheet or baking paper. Top with an almond, macadamia or walnut if desired. Heat your oven to 180C and cook about 12-17 minutes. Remove from baking paper once slightly cooled.

Chocolate Orange Biscuits
This recipe is using orange peel to add flavour, so no need to worry about fruit sugar spiking your bg levels. Try to use organic oranges to avoid pesticides, if you cant do that then make sure you wash the orange really well.
200 g ground almonds
1 handful of chopped almonds or pistachio nuts (pistachios add a bit more colour)
zest of two oranges (make sure you dont grate any pith, or it will be bitter)
sweetener equivalent to 50 to 100 g sugar
2 tablespoons psllium husks
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 vanilla pod or use vanilla extract or essence
2 eggs
1 bar of high cocoa content chocolate (Lidl's is good for that)
___________________________________________________________________________________
Mix all the dry ingredients, knead in the eggs. The dough will be sticky, but firm.
Shape the dough into the size of chubby fingers, then flatten slightly, place onto on a lined baking sheeet.
Bake for approx. 20 minutes at 175C. Take them out of the oven and cut the 'fingers' diagonically across as per photo. Place the biscuits back into the oven, leave the door ajar and the temperature at 75C to dry out the biscuits, this takes a good hour or even two.
Remove biscuits from the oven, leave them overnight in the kitchen, uncovered.
Next day, melt chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Dip one end of the biscuits in chocolate. Let the chocolate harden, then place biscuits in a sealed container, store in a cool and dry place.
These are lovely with a cup of coffee or glass of wine.
