    I am planning on making them but bought all the stuff and was not able to find Brewers yeast so had to order online. Waiting on that and then will try them. I did get some from babies r us and they were gross. In didn't notice any differences in my milk supply with the already made kind

    My husband made some oatmeal & chocolate ones. My supply has gone up, but I'm also drinking 3-5 cups of mother's milk tea, taking calcium magnesium tablets, eating oatmeal every day, eating a lot of protein, drinking a ton of water, and pumping. We have a LOT of issues. The cookies are yummy though.

    I've been eating them for a few weeks. I think they taste great.

    We made them. I've noticed an increase (not substantial but noticeable). They taste decent. We made the cookie balls and then froze them. One batch made 8 dozen 2 tsp scoops. .

    I have a few no bake recipes I was going to try. I had to order the Brewers yeast off Amazon because I can't find it in stores. I'm producing plenty to feed LO I just want a little boost in pumping. I hate tea or I would try the mothers milk tea.

    @cassieegtmeier I used a website called PureFormula.com and it cost me $5.91 no tax and free shipping. It arrived in 3 days instead of the 5-7 business days the site stated. I had found it in stores (same brand and size) for $20.

    A friend sent me a sampler of Liquid Gold Cookies out of Santa Rosa, CA. They are seriously delicious and my milk supply has been excellent!! Just ordered more for the coming month. :)

    Most bulk stores sell ground flax and brewer's yeast.  I actually whipped up a batch of chocolate haystacks yesterday, and just added some ground flax and brewer's yeast.  I did add water to the flax as called for in another recipe, so they didn't firm up quite the same way, but they are chocolatey delicious, and not $22 a bag like the only ones I could find around me were.  The yeast and flax also go into my morning oatmeal - the cost for a 2 week supply was $2.80.

    I found Brewers yeast in the healthfood section of HEB (local grocery store) and Flax Seed at my local Target as well.
