Flour Free Peanut Butter Cookies

I'm inputting the recipe into MFP (and halving it) and coming out with a very different calorie/sugar count for the cookies!

Mine says:

91 calories each cookie, with 8 grams of sugar and 5g of fat! That's very different from 68 cals 2.9g fat and 4.3g of sugar in the original post.

The peanut butter is Maranatha creamy (no sugar/oil/anything added - except a touch of sea salt)

and I even used an egg white only, not a whole egg.

What am I doing wrong?

I think it might be the serving size.

I don't think so - OP's serving size also seemed to be 1 cookie.
Unless you mean the peanut butter. I took it down to a little over 1/3 of a cup and that got it closer. Wonder if they will be the same though.
And that doesn't account for the difference in sugar.

Edit: I took the white sugar down to 6 teaspoons only, that brought my sugar down to 6g per cookie. Still more than the 4 in OP.

His recipe made 24 cookies. Add the ingredients back and try it with 24 servings instead of 12

Mine came out kind of crumbly. Is that normal? I didn't combine it in the way that was written, so maybe that's why? Crumbly or not, they are good and I'm making sammich cookies with chocolate frosting in between them. Should be yummy.
