(but the pictures are from the cookies i made!) Ingredients: 1 cup peanut butter, creamy or crunchy 1 1/3 cups baking sugar replacement (recommended: Splenda) 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract How To Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, 1 cup sugar replacement, the egg, and vanilla, and stir well with a spoon. Roll the dough into balls the size of walnuts. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet. With a fork, dipped in sugar replacement to prevent sticking, press a crisscross design on each cookie. Bake for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, and sprinkle the cookies with some of the remaining sugar replacement. Cool slightly before removing from pan. Number of Servings: Yield: 18 cookies Preparation Time: Prep Time: 15 minutes Effort (Easy, Average, Difficult): Easy Source: Recipe courtesy Paula Deen Episode#: PA1D07

Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Quick, easy and few ingredients Cons: None! OMG! It tastes and feels like a real cookie! My kids LOVE 'em, so I don't have to worry about portion control. They'll eat them before I have a chance to eat too many! They are a bit fragile, so be careful when you bite into them. Yummmmm! oct2667us MAJOR LCF POSTER!

Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: so close to the real thing Cons: none! These are so good! I can't believe they're basically good for you (lots of protein). I would have never guessed you could make cookies without any kind of flour. YoYo Girl Junior LCF Member Registered: October 2006 Posts: 19 Review Date: Thu November 2, 2006 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 9    Pros: Easy and delish! Cons: None I just made these with my Daughter, I am very pleasantly surprised. I used the Peter Pan PB that is lower Carb! I will be making these on a regular basis.

Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Easy, quick and delicious Cons: None I used Skippy Carb Options PB and some Almond Davinci syrup...DELICIOUS!! NoAngel Senior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Location: New Yawk Posts: 88 Review Date: Mon November 20, 2006 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 0    Pros: Cons: I wanted to add I made these tonight with the new Splenda quick packets as they are equivalent to 1 cup of sugar and only 3.3 carbs per pack. I love these cookies and really wanted to lower the carb count! I also only used 1 tsp of splenda to shake on top of the cookies. Sarmay MAJOR LCF POSTER!

Newmoo Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2007 Location: Los Angeles, CA Posts: 7 Review Date: Thu January 25, 2007 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Delicious and EASY Cons: Nothing These cookies are so good that my 8 year old asks for them by name. 4 ingredients and easy easy easy. I like 2 of them in the morning with my coffee during my commute. Don't miss donuts at all this way. sweetie_pie Senior LCF Member Registered: February 2007 Location: Ontario, CANADA Posts: 508 Review Date: Tue March 6, 2007 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 0    Pros: Delicous & simple Cons: Beware: They are TOO good! This recipe is amazing - the only trouble is that it's hard to resist eating the cookie dough! It's absolutely delicious! So, I think this is the last batch I'll be making. Even being low carb, they are still too dangerous to have around! JJLove Junior LCF Member Registered: May 2007 Location: Portland, Oregon Posts: 41 Review Date: Tue June 12, 2007 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Four ingredients and awesome texture Cons: Very good texture, just like the "real" thing. My BF said "These aren't low carb". They do not spread out when baking, so flatten them and don't worry about putting them close together. I froze half of them to keep them "out of sight". My calculations put one cookie at 3.5g of Carb (18 cookies)-24g in 1C splenda and 40g in 1C peanut butter. Will make again. julievan Senior LCF Member Registered: June 2006 Posts: 73 Review Date: Tue June 12, 2007 Would you recommend the Recipe?

Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Quick, Easy & Low Carb - WOW Cons: None This was a very simple receipe. I just can't believe that it's low carb and taste like the real thing. curliegirl MAJOR LCF POSTER! Registered: September 2003 Location: Pacific NW Posts: 1119 Review Date: Sun July 22, 2007 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 9    Pros: Easy,quick, few ingredients Cons: Easy to eat to many These were really good and easy to make. I broke down the counts and this is what I came up with for ONE cookie : 94 calories, 7.4 fat grams and 3.2 carbs I ended up eating 7 !!! So these really add up if you over indulge - be careful. I probably won't make more until I'm at maintenence. jemmi Senior LCF Member Registered: April 2007 Posts: 557 Review Date: Thu July 26, 2007 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Delightful! Reminded me of those made with flour Cons: None that I can think of. I took what others had said they tried, and so I made this recipe, adding 1 extra egg, and 1 Tablespoon of butter as well. I baked them longer than the 12 minutes, as I like crispy, crunchy cookies better than soft ones. I didn't make the criss-cross marks with a fork, rather, I just put a heaping Tablespoon of dough on some non-stick aluminum foil. I can take a picture of them, but I don't know how to post that pic in here. I will say they look, feel, and taste very much like a cookie made with flour, except these are a bit lighter in weight/texture. It's just great for when you want a little dessert!

Yes | Rating: 7    Pros: easy, quick, yum Cons: none These are super easy. I only bake a few at a time using 2 tbs of crunchy peanut butter, 4 packets of splenda, 1 tbs of egg sub, and 1/4 tsp vanilla. This yields 3 perfect cookies. So tasty and I'm not tempted to eat more than I make. Only 20 minutes from start to tummy.
