Dana’s Carpender’s Low Carb Anniversary – The 33% Report by Dana Carpender in the September 2013 issue of CarbSmart Magazine.

I do remember that the first time I tried this, I thought, "Dana, you have gone right 'round the bend, making pork rind cookies." Hah. They're fantastic. I have gotten more glowing feedback on this recipe than on almost any other. Try them. Really.
