It looks and sounds lovely cookie.  Diabetics don’t have to miss out on their desserts.

I have always veered away from chia deserts because they remind me of frogs eggs .... yes, even after 60 + years, the frogs eggs get me!  That looks very tempting, though I might just give it a go.

Cookie, your dessert looks lovely.  I'm shopping today so will put chia seeds on the list.  As kids we always called sago frogs eggs.
