Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
"I couldn't believe that you could make these cookies without flour. I saw them on Emeril and had to give them a try. An added touch is to put chocolate chips in the batter. Yum!"

I made these cookies (as written) and everyone at work loved them. They were referred to as the "best cookies ever" and everyone wanted the recipe. I suspect that the people who downrated this recipe had problems simply because of the splenda, not because of the recipe. The recipe is GREAT! -
I made the recipe exactly as described only I substitued Splenda for the sugar. The cookies looked great when finished but I wasn't happy when I tasted them. They were definitely dry, like a tea cookie. And it wasn't because I baked them too long, if anything I under-cooked them. Also, I am extra sensitive to artificial sweetener taste and I could definitely taste the Splenda. These must be better with real sugar. However, the recipe is extremely easy and takes only minutes so give it a try and see if you can do better than me. The recipe made exactly 12 cookies. -
I'm on Atkin's and couldn't wait to try these! (no flour allowed on Atkins!) I subbed "Splenda" for the sugar. They tasted great! One problem was they were a little dry. Could be the Splenda or I cooked them a little to long. (With Splenda you have to shorten the cooking time. My son liked them also! -
Thanksgiving is always a challenge as a diabetic. Thanks for giving me a sweet treat that tastes great. I will be making these cookies often. I would not qualify this as a complaint only as an informational statement however this recipe barely yield a dozen cookies. It would be impossible to get 72 cookies out of this quantity. -
Yum Yum Yummy cookies. The kids and my husband loved them. Fast and easy to make. We added chocolate chips to the second batch we made they were great also. GREAT cookies!! THANKS

These are a YUMMY treat! I substituted the baking soda with vanilla essence- thats the only change I made. I made these and they were gone in seconds!
