This weekend i want to try out this digestive cookie for my Dad. As my Dad is a diabetic, I want to make a low calorie cookie for him. Can i replace butter with oil in the above recipe. If yes, tell me the oil quantity i should use. <strong><em> Thanks for trying it Nandhini. I won't suggest baking these cookies for a diabetic because it is very sweet. Secondly oil substitution will not be right in the recipe, because the digestive cookies gets it's distinctive flavor from the butter. Instead try the <strong><a href="http://www.egglesscooking.com/2009/05/25/whole-wheat-sesame-crackers/" rel="nofollow">whole wheat crackers</a></strong>. It's a savory cookie, so no sugar at all.

Thanks for trying it Nandhini. I won’t suggest baking these cookies for a diabetic because it is very sweet. Secondly oil substitution will not be right in the recipe, because the digestive cookies gets it’s distinctive flavor from the butter. Instead try the whole wheat crackers. It’s a savory cookie, so no sugar at all. You can even try reducing the quantity of oil a little bit.

Gotta few doubts n I hope u would clear them for me 1. The biscuits werent soft n crumbly as I thought it would be, but since I have never tasted a digestive biscuit before, thought I would ask you on the texture. 2. They were quite hard n I thought it was because i used cold milk. Can u tell me if i should use hot milk or cold milk to the dough? 3. They expanded only a bit. Mine is a very old round oven where u cant adjust the temperature. do u think that is the reason? All in all, I wud say the biscuit did taste good except a bit sugary n hubby took it office :-) Thank you madhu for sharing a wonderful recipe n I hope to have the doubts cleared once u r back from Chennai. Take Care <strong><em>You're welcome Twinsy. I have already mentioned in the taste section that the cookies were hard and not soft.
