Low Carb Dessert Recipe - Peanut Butter Cookies

These flourless, low carb cookies rock!

Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies

· 1 cup no sugar added peanut butter, creamy or crunchy
· 1 1/3 cups baking sugar replacement (I use 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 low carb peanut butter, 1 cup of the Splenda, 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 Splenda, press a crisscross design on each cookie. (I experimented and added some sugar free chocolate to some of the cookies as seen in the picture and they turned out great!) Bake for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, and sprinkle the cookies with some of the remaining Splenda. Cool slightly before removing from pan, enjoy!
