Original Recipe from foodnetwork.com
Yes, you heard me. With 35 calories a cookie, these cookies were a hit at my house. I wish I would have shared this recipe earlier, but I had totally forgotten about it.
I like to make about 9 of these, then freeze the rest for a rainy day.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 c of peanut butter (Mine was 190 cals per serving. They usually range from 190-200)
12 splenda packets (Or enough splenda to equal a 1/2 cup of sugar. [refer to the splenda box for conversions])
1 small egg (Or half of a large egg)
1/2 ts. of baking soda
*Preheat oven to 350F
In one medium sized bowl, cream the peanut butter and Splenda (I used a wisk, but electric mixer works better)
Next, beat your egg in a tiny bowl, (I used a cup) then beat it into the peanut butter and Splenda mix.
Last, beat in the baking soda.
Roll level teaspoons of dough into balls and place them about an inch and a half apart on a greased baking sheet (Using a no fat non stick spray of course!) Then with a fork, press lightly on the cookies to make horizontal inprints into the dough. Then go over again, but make vertical imprints, to make crosshatch pattern. The cookie should be about an inch in diameter. Then finally, bake in the oven for about 7-10 minutes.
French Connection
wow these sound so healthy i just have to try them! about how many cookies does this recipe make?
1I made about 24 of them, but sometimes it comes out to a bit more.
2Sounds wonderful! Easy to make too and not much ingredients. I have to try this out when midterms are over as my reward.
3These cookies are good and they have a nice flavor, but the consistency is a little strange. You have to eat them while keeping in mind that they are healthier than regular cookies and that they cannot be expected to taste just like regular cookies.
4I would like to add however that for what these cookies are and how many calories are in each one, they are great!
