Sugar free Christmas cookies?

CoachJen71

Have any of you ever made frosted sugar cookies with Splenda? Would like to a make a sugar-free variation for the adults in the family this year.

The maltodextrin will still be a source of glucose if sugar is a health issue. So will the flour though, so I am guessing you just want to cut back on sucrose?

I would think Splenda would work, especially if you are making royal icing.

Mostly trying to cut a few calories out. Wish I could really make them diabetic-friendly but only have white flour in the pantry and no money to pick up any other ingredients.

Splenda is not healthy. Contains chlorine. Use Stevia instead. Liquid form is best, not bitter. Use almond flour or coconut flour instead of the regular toxic flour.

I hope they turn out well.

Skip the frosting if you want by adding any of these on top: nuts, cinnamon, chocolate chips,
