I loved this recipe once I tweaked to suit me. I made two batches: one as written and one in which I substituted 1/3 St. Joseph's Maltitol Sweetner and reduced the water to about a Tablespoon or two. In comparing the two the one with the St. Joseph's was sweeter and I thought a better tasting cookie. The original recipie produced a cookie that was more bitter in taste.
I don't like very sweet cookies so I gave these a try. Unfortunately they were very heavy unflavorful and even my diabetic mother wouldn't eat them!
This cookie is tasty I might try it with unsweetened chocolate instead of cocoa next time to see if there is a difference. Also should add sweetners with dry ingredients not with eggs like regular sugar.
recipe calls for 1 cup egg I used 1 egg. Used artificial sweetner to = 1/3 cup sugar used sweetened applesauce (by mistake) cookies are not sweet to the taste at all. Sorry didn't like

This is an excellent recipe- very versatile. I have many food allergies so I used amaranth flour flax (instead of an egg) potato milk and honey (instead of granular sweetener). They still turned out wonderful. Also if you bake them for less time they stay chewy in the middle and taste like brownies!
I used honey instead of artificial sweetener and about half the amount of water called for. They turned out great very cakey and spongy. These would make great whoopie pies!
The cookie had a good texture but little flavor.
there isnt anything delicious about this recipe. They looked good but did not taste good at all. They need flavor added.
