If you are a diabetic, it can be difficult to find foods to fit into your sugar-free lifestyle, especially if you have a sweet tooth. With new products on the market, you can make sugar-free desserts. Sugar-free cookies can be made at home with Splenda. Splenda is a low-calorie sugar substitute that is safe for diabetics to use. This recipe for sugar-free cookies is both free of sugar and fat. The cookies are low-calorie and make a light treat for the end of a meal or a midday snack.
Instructions
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place the egg white substitute in the metal mixing bowl and use the mixer on high power to beat it for 2 minutes.
3. Add the cream of tartar and beat it on high for another minute.
4. Add the Splenda, salt and vanilla and beat until stiff peaks form. To test for the peaks, pull the whisk out of the bowl and hold it upside down. If the batter on the end of the whisk remains upright, the batter is done.
5. Drop tablespoonfuls of batter onto the parchment paper. Bake them in the oven at 350 degrees F for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Let them cool completely.
6. Place a small spoonful of sugar-free peanut butter or jam onto the bottom of one of the cookies. Place a second cookie on the other side of the filling to make a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and serve.
