WHAT DO U THINK?

I am sitting here eating 3 separate cookie size pieces of choc. Chip cookie dough and am wondering:
Is it worse to eat the cookie before it goes in the oven or after?

There are a few arguments for this question. First I wonder if u eat the cookie fully baked if u get more carbs and therefore gain more weight. Or if you eat the dough does it bake in ur tummy and the dough expands in the warm inner part of your body? Hmmm….. not sure. I am sure that either way is bad but which one causes u to gain more weight? The cookie dough is smaller than the actual cookie and so one would think that the cookie dough is better or should I say would not make you as fat but I am sure that I am wrong. O man I just don’t know for sure.

  1. I think the calorie content of one ball of cookie dough is the same as the content of the baked cookie it would produce. I don't think fat grams "cook off." Good try, though.

    Unless, however, if you are making cookies with alcohol in the recipe. Then, cooking it is better for you.

    haha

  2. Oh, one more thing. If you take three balls of dough and smash them together to make one big cookie, you will not gain as much weight. Simply because when Mandrae says, "How many cookies did you eat?" you can say, "Just one."

    One is better than three.

    That's my advice.
