OK Rhonda, I will get you real close as far as taste and basic texture but the the color and whether you want a crunch to your wafer will depend on your oven and playing with baking times and cookie size.



LC Vanilla Wafer (approx 2 dozen wafers) 16 carb for entire batch

2/3 cup carbalose
1 Tablespoon resistant wheat starch
1/8 cup granular erythritol
1/8 cup isomalt
1 Tablespoon not/Sugar
1/2 ts baking powder
pinch of salt

1/2 stick butter; softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 drops sweetzfree
1 egg


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Sift or wisk all dry ingredients together.
In medium bowl with mixer at low speed,
beat butter, vanilla and egg until combined.
Mix in dry ingredients until dough is formed.

Roll dough into 1/2 in balls and place at least 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
With the bottom of a smooth glass, smash balls to make a flat wafer.

On middle rack of oven bake 12 to 16 minutes until cookie are of desired doneness.

Note: The time here will depend on the color and crunch you are looking for in your wafer.
