Made this for a graduation party in 4 styles: blueberry topping on plain, peanut butter cup (added about 1/2 cup peanut butter and a bag of mini chocolate chips to batter and then sliced up Reese's PB cup to put on the top), oreo cookie (added 8-9 oreo cookies slightly broken up into batter with crushed oreo cookie as a topping), and pumpkin cheesescake (added a small can of pumpkin pie mix to batter). It was a hit. All 200 disappeared quickly with many compliments.

I substituted as follows: 3/4 c. mashed bananas 1/2 c. crisco for the margarine 1 1/2 c. Splenda+1 tbsp. molasses for brown and white sugar 4 egg whites instead of just 2 (to add more liquids because the Splenda has a tendency to absorb some of the moistness in baking mixes) I also didn't include any raisins or chocolate like some reviewers did. These subs need to be mixed differently because of the consistencies; which i did as follows: I beat the bananas and crisco until well blended; then I added the molasses and vanilla, again beating until well blended; then I beat the egg whites in until well blended; then I added the Splenda 1/2 c. at a time beating well after each addition. Then mixed dry ingredients per the recipe. You also need to smash them down with fork on cookie sheet. The end result: delicious!

Excellent recipe. I substituted as follows: 3/4 c. Promise spread+1/4 c. butter; 1 c. splenda instead of white sugar; 1 cup splenda+2 tbsp. molasses instead of brown sugar; 1 1/2 cup regular Oat-Bran instead of All-Bran Cereal; 1 cup each of M&Ms and Resse's Pieces Peanut Butter candy; and 1 cup macadamia nuts--I also added a tsp. of baking powder. The cookies came out a little crumbly so I had to flatten them with a fork. I probably wont use the nuts or baking powder next time to see if they will flatten properly. All in all this was a great cookie recipe and will definitely make it again--hopefully I can find some sugar free chips/candy to use to get rid of more sugar.
