Another recipe from the Splenda website. I found that the cookies with Splenda tend to be kinda dry and crumbly. These have a great flavor though. Just keep a close eye on them and don't overcook! NUTRITION FACTS Servings Per Recipe: 30 Amount Per Serving Total Carbs: 8g

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES - LOW SUGAR/DIABETIC FRIENDLY RECIPE



Chocolate Chip Cookies - Low Sugar/Diabetic Friendly Recipe image

Another recipe from the Splenda website. These were surprisingly good! I adjusted the recipe a little, using the Splenda Brown Sugar Blend (instead of regular brown sugar) and I did not dip the cookies into a chocolate sauce. So the carb count shown here is probably slightly more than what this recipe actually is. NUTRITION...

"SUGAR" COOKIES (DIABETIC FRIENDLY)



We have several diabetics in my family as well as some friends. This makes them very happy at the holidays to be able to eat 'sugar' cookies with everyone else. I also use lemon extract to make a bit of variety with a lemon icing (also sugar substitute used)
