2-on-Tuesday: Magical Peanut Butter Cookies

Nope. I did not come up with this recipe. I think I saw it on a Paula Deen show, years ago. Regardless, it's a pretty good recipe using Splenda in the place of flour and sugar. That's right! Because there is no flour and the sugar comes comes from a sweetener (a smidge from the peanut butter), it's a great recipe for diabetics, too!


1 C  Peanut Butter (or your favorite nut butter)
1 C  Splenda or Stevia
**carefully smoosh the above ingredients together, then, add...
1    Egg
1 t  Vanilla
**and mix

  • Take batter and roll into 2" balls onto parchment paper lining your cookie sheet.
  • What would a peanut butter cookie be without the crisscross fork pattern? An unrecognizable cookie, that's what! Be sure to dip the tines of your fork into the Splenda before pressing the cookie.
  • Bake 350 degrees  for 15-18 minutes
Whatcha think?
