Yesenia, a fellow Slenderiiz user and friend, posted a link to some delicious cookies today! http://www.yummly.com/recipe/external/Flourless_-sugar-free-peanut-butter-cookies-309702
The recipe calls for peanut butter and peanuts, so I adapted to almond butter and chopped almonds. The only other substitute I made was instead of using a tsp of water I used a tsp of coconut milk.
(Makes about 2 dozen small cookies, recipe adapted from Flourless Almond Butter Cookies from Cookie Madness.)
Ingredients:
1 large egg
1 cup granular Splenda or Stevia-in-the-Raw Granulated Sweetener
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp.vanilla extract
1 cup creamy natural almond butter (check sugar content, the one I used had no sugar in the ingredients)
1 tsp. water (I used coconut milk)
1/3 cup chopped almonds (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
In mixing bowl, use electric beater to beat together the egg, Stevia, baking powder, and vanilla for about a minute. Add almond butter and water and beat together. (The mixture was fairly dry and broken apart. Just be sure the peanut butter is mixed well with the other ingredients.) Add peanuts if using, and blend into dough.
Use a large non-stick cookie sheet. Measure out a heaping teaspoon of batter for each cookie, then smash down with a fork. Bake 15 minutes, or slightly longer, until cookies feel firm and are slightly browned.
Tip: For easy clean up line your baking sheets with foil.
