The After Beracha for Milk and Cookies

The After Beracha for Milk and Cookies
Day: Friday
Date: June 3, 2016
Parshat: Behukotai
Yalkut Yosef: O"H: 210

In memory of Hannah bat Shelomo.

As mentioned previously, one who eats a kezayit (27 grams) of grain based mezonot food within seven and a half minutes says al hamihya. If he ate less than 27 grams or it took longer than seven and a half minutes, no after beracha is said. One who is dipping cookies into milk for example, and because of the added weight of the milk it happens that he ate a kezayit of cookies within seven and a half minutes, does not say an after beracha. Since the kezayit is not just cookies, but is also partially milk, there is not enough to say the after beracha on. Of course, if even without the milk there enough cookies were eaten, an after beracha is said.
