Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Homemade Cookie

This homemade cookie reference describes a whole-wheat recipe with orange and yogurt. A 40 g cookie contains about 113 calories. Homemade alone does not establish a calorie value or mean sugar-free.

How many calories are in two cookies?

If both weigh 40 g, their combined 80 g provides about 225 calories. A small 25 g cookie has 70 calories; a large 60 g cookie has 169 calories. Two small pieces and two large ones therefore need different calculations.

The source's 120 g serving contains about 338 calories. Treat it as a total weight rather than a standard single cookie. Thickness and shape can change the weight of each piece.

For Annas orange thins, six cookies total 27 g. Comparing the same number with this 40 g homemade cookie would mean eating very different amounts.

Whole-wheat flour does not remove the sugar

The recipe contains sugar, vegetable oil and butter as well as whole-wheat flour, eggs and yogurt. It uses orange zest and part of the juice. Fruit flavour and whole-wheat flour do not make it sugar-free; a reliable total-sugars value is unavailable here.

The 40 g example provides about 2.52 g protein and 1.53 g fibre. Count sugar or milk added to your tea, or a separate chocolate coating, outside the cookie amount. Changing the flour, fat or sugar proportions changes the result for your own recipe.

For chocolate chip cookies too, homemade and commercial recipes can differ in fat and sugar. Weigh the baked, cooled cookies rather than using raw dough weight.

Source note

Values use the 100 g table linked to Diyetkolik's recipe. Conflicting sugar and carbohydrate figures in the page's general prose were not copied. Final batch yield, total sugars, saturated fat and vitamin A in RAE remain unverified.
