RJ's Flavored Sugar Cookies (low sugar)


¾ cup splenda sugar blend
1 1/3 cup vegetable oil
4 teaspoons baking powder
4 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
4 cups flour
Flavored sugar-free jello mix

PREHEAT oven to 400˚.

•    Heat oven to 400°. 
•    In a large bowl cream the sugar, oil, baking powder, vanilla, salt & eggs.  Mix in flour one cup at a time.
•    Put your jello flavors onto a plate or flat bowl.
•    Drop dough by teaspoonfuls about 2” apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.  Press bottom of glass onto dough in bowl once to grease, then press into jello, then onto cookie ball & flatten to about ¼” thickness. (I use one flavor per cookie)
•    Bake 6-8 minutes until light golden brown at bottom edges.

Makes about 4 dozen cookies. =3 grams of sugar per cookie

RJ's Chocolate Chip Cookies (low sugar)


1 ½ cups butter or margarine, softened
1 ¼ cups splenda (not the blend)
½ cup + 2 tbsps Splenda brown sugar blend
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 eggs
4 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups no sugar added chocolate chips (Frozo's sells them, and most chocolate candy shops)

PREHEAT oven to 350˚.

   Cream butter, sugars, vanilla & eggs in large bowl.  Stir in flour, baking soda &  salt.  Stir in chocolate chips.

   Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie  sheet.
When using regular splenda, you must press cookies a little flatter before baking with the back of a spoon.

 •  Bake 9-11 minutes, or until light golden brown.  Cool slightly.  Move to wire     rack to finish cooling.

Makes about 4 dozen cookies. =2.5 grams of sugar per cookie
