  • I've used that recipe and they turned out great. I also tried them with splenda instead of sugar, but they came out kind of dry and less gritty. I wonder if another brand of artificial sweetener would work better.
  • How many does it make?

    these are so good! I think I did them with half sugar and splenda and they came out okay. if they're dry, maybe a lunch pack of applesauce in them?

    I'd like to know this as well. If it only makes a dozen each cookie comes to around 190 calories, which is hardly worth it. But if it makes two dozen it wouldn't be bad.

    I make a similar recipe from "One Smart Cookie" but it has

    1.5 cups light Peanut Butter
    .5 cup white sugar
    .5 cup brown sugar
    1 egg

    Makes 24 cookies
    Per cookie: 110 cals, 5.6g fat, 14.1 carbs, 57.5mg sodium, 0.8g fiber

    They are delicious!!!

    I got about 24 cookies out of 1 batch. Mine were soft, I think I will let them bake another minute or two next time.........but they were still yummy. :)

    I love these! My mom saw the recipe on Paula Deen and made them for me when I was doing Atkins. I love them soft and chewy! She makes them with Splenda instead of sugar.:)

    Thanks for the recipe. Will most likely try it with a mix of a white and brown sugar substitute.
  • These cookies look yummy, and I'm sure they're much healthier than the normal recipe!!!!

    from my limited baking experience with eggwhites vs whole eggs:
    just using eggwhites will make them dryer. i'd probably use some extra, or maybe add applesauce.

    Yummy! What's the calorie content per cookie? Do you think it would be good with raw brown sugar instead of white?
