Ingredients

1 cup peanut butter, creamy or crunchy
1 1/3 cups baking sugar replacement (recommended: Splenda)
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

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.

man,not all the ingrediants i used to use with my old peanut butter cookies, i love this one.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These cookies are a hit, I dont like sugar or splenda, because many dont know that spenda is a poison, so i substitute... 1-batch with dextrose and the other with stevia becaue i have a diabetic son. and both the batches tatse so good.Read more

"So easy to make! I'm thirteen and can make them!"
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These were really good, but you need to bake them for about 16 minutes instead of 12 like the recipe says to do. I was so... surprised how many cookies you could make in 1 batch. The recipe says you can make 18, but I was able to get 28 out of mine. Over all they were delicious and easy to make.Read more

They Really Are MAGICAL
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I baked these cookies for the holidays and they were a hit! My husband doesn't like PB cookies and he ate four! My stepson... and nephew enjoyed them. Every dessert I've made thus far, have been by Paula Deen, and they have come out exceptionally well. This recipe is an easy one to follow. The only difference with my cookies were the peanut butter morsels I added. I had to have the morsels, as I love, love, love peanut butter. This is the best PB cookie recipe that I have tried and I won't use any others. This is a winner!Read more
