The secret ingredient to making chewy chocolate chip cookies

Watched a YouTube video (Keto Connect) on how to make keto friendly chocolate chip cookies. Only ingredient I didn’t have was Beef Gelatin, so I ordered what they recommended from Amazon. Arrived today and just made the cookies. They are fabulously wonderful!! Here’s the recipe in case you’re interested: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place a stick of Kerrygold Irish butter in a large bowl. Microwave for a minute or more to melt. Add 1.5 cups of almond flour, 1/2 cup Swerve granular, splash of vanilla extract, 1.5 tsp baking powder and a heaping 1 Tbs of beef gelatin. Mix together with a handheld blender. Add in an egg. Mix again. Put in as many Hershey’s sugar free chocolate chips as you’d like. Fold them in. Scoop balls of dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Oven should be preheated to 350 degrees. Place them in oven for 15 minutes. Enjoy!

No pot roast taste for my cookies

Bought this for a low carb chocolate chip cookie recipe. Worked great to make the cookies more chewy and gave a good texture. Did not make the cookies taste like pot roast so that's a plus!

Nature's Pain Reliever - It's Awesome!

My arthritis in my hands was getting ridiculous so i went online and looked to see if there were certain foods that I should eat to relieve the pain and swelling. Two of the most common "foods" were Gelatin and Omega 3. So, I started taking them both. With the gelatin, I use more than required for typical "jello" so I can cut them into squares for soft "gummy" type snacks. Newman's own grape juice from Costco has been my favorite so far to add to the gelatin. No sugar needed, just use the juice; it's got all the flavor and sweetness needed! Within the first week, my pain was greatly reduced and here a few weeks later, just a slight amount of pain. So, WHY does it work? Well, omega 3 lubricate us (in simple terms and this is just one of the many benefits) and gelatin reduces swelling and helps to repair our cartridge. If you look at diets today, we no longer make the highly nutritious stews and soups we used to; this means, we're no longer getting the cooked down animal bones that we need so desperately to maintain quality health. Makes sense doesn't it? The bottom line is our bodies WILL break down over time if we don't give it what it needs to repair itself. I hope this helps! :-)

Very good high quality gelatin...

I have been on the Keto diet for over 2 years now and this beef gelatin powder is great for an added filler to protein shakes or Keto baking. It also provides collagen for your tendons and also has gut-healing benefits. It can be added to baking or sauces as a thickening agent. It does not taste like beef. It has no taste so it will not ruin your Keto cookies. Very good high quality gelatin.

Great product for making homemade jello

I was so glad to have found this product. I had a colonoscopy coming up and was looking for a natural product to make my own homemade Jello. After i made it I could not tell the difference. Here's the simple healthy recipe: two cups of your favorite juice ( I used an organic lemonade ), two Tbsp of the gelatin, one packet of stevia. Simmer 10 minutes on the stove, put in a glass bowl or pan and refrigerate.

Perfect for what I need it for

I am using this to repair a ton of joint injuries and torn ligaments that I got from a masseuse. It is a great deal compared to Knox tiny packets that are extraordinarily expensive for so little. I use a little less than a tablespoon once a day mixed in a small glass of water. The taste is not bad--just like other unflavored gelatin. I ordered a 4lb bulk jar after I ran out of this and just refill this package as needed. I will keep buying this brand in bulk for years to come. I hear that it also aids in nutrient absorption, so I usually take it when I am having a salad or fruits to help with the absorption of those nutrients. It gels very fast, so I drink it right in front of the sink after I add water or else it gets very thick, but I am using a scant 4oz water for 1 Tbs. Great product at a great price.

It works...

I love what Beef Gelatin can do and I bought this one as I ran out of my 4 lb bottle and it wasn't yet close to my monthly Amazon Subscribe refill. It's a very fair price and this product made an impact in helping me heal up quicker from joint pain. It's a shame most doctors want to prescribe a drug versus telling you about something that works that you can get over the counter and poses no side effects.

Great Benefits!

Two years ago I started eating sugar free jello for dessert to stay away from sugary treats. I noticed after a while that my nails were growing like crazy and my hair was thicker than usual. I also had shoulder pain that was suddenly non existent. Fast forward two years and I got out of the habit of eating the sugar free jello. I noticed my hair was blah, my nails were breaking, and I had terrible skin and shoulder pain. Then it dawned on me...no gelatin in my diet! I bought this gelatin powder to see if it made a difference. After about three weeks I have noticed my nails are stronger and growing fast once again, my hair is thicker than normal, and my shoulder pain has all but disappeared. Also, at 68 years old, I didn't realize how bad my skin looked until I started taking the gelatin. It looks totally different now...plumper and with smaller pores, and makeup goes on much better. I mix a couple of spoonsful in my orange juice every morning. Sometimes it's a little lumpy if I don't mix it enough but I drink it up knowing that the benefits are great! Since buying this gelatin powder I've done a lot of reading into the benefits of gelatin. I guess the biggest benefit to me is the lessoning of my shoulder pain and I understand that gelatin is very good for helping with joint pain. There is no taste to this powder either so you can mix it with anything. I guess you can say that I'm a believer and I plan on using this product forever.

Perfect for jello and gummies!

Beef gelatin was recommended to me by a midwife for easily-digested protein, but then I learned I can make jello and fruit snacks/gummy bears with it, too! I eat beef gelatin jello and fruit snacks made from 100% fruit juice and honey everyday! It’s been a month, and I feel great! I recommend it to anyone wanting a protein powder. I will continue to use beef gelatin for the rest of my life!

PERFECT FOR GUMMIES!

Great for making gummies. LOVE that this is made by NOW Foods. Excellent quality product, and I love that it’s natural. NO reason to pay the higher prices for other brands on here that are “recommended by bloggers” - this is VERY high quality, completely superior, but the price isn’t high. LOVE NOW FOODS!
