Sugar Free, Whole Wheat ,Peanut Butter Cookies image

I adapted this recipe from an old family cookbook, The Mennonite Community Cookbook. I swapped sugar for splenda and white flour for wheat. I wanted a cookie I could eat without sending my blood sugar on a rollercoaster ride.

Time 45m

Yield 4 Dozen, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup shortening, i prefer butter
1 cup peanut butter
1 1/2-2 cups Splenda sugar substitute
2 eggs
3 cups whole wheat flour, i use pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Cream shortening and peanut butter together I find that putting these ingredients together in a microwave safe bowl and microwaving for 30 seconds makes the mixing job a lot easier Add sugar and continue to cream together Add eggs and vanilla and beat In a separate bowl measure and add flour, salt, soda and baking powder together Sift dry ingredients to creamed mixture and mix thoroughly.
  • The mixture will be crumbly but stick together if pressed with hands.
  • Optional: Chill dough in refrigerator for several hours Shape dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter Space evenly on cookie sheet Press flat with fork Bake at 375 for 12 to 15 minutes.
