These are great cookies very sweet. Be sure to sift flour I didn't and had too much. If you don't be sure to use 1/4 cup less. Read More

This was really easy to make however I used full Truvia rather than the blend. First I had a hard time with the dough. It was very crumbly and didn't stick real well. Then when I went to press the crisscross pattern with the fork if I pressed too much and they tried to fall apart so I had to make gentle presses. The cookies are a bit dry. I'm not sure what I think yet. Read More

Needs more moisture very crumbly cannot press down with fork without cookies breaking apart. I reduced flour by 1/4 cup as Angela suggested....ok but no nice criss cross impression. Next time will add a bit more peanut butter as well maybe a bit more shortening as well. Read More

These cookies were too dry and crumbly. Also did not have the expected flavor when made with stevia and not real sugar. Felt like a waste of good peanut butter! Read More
