I used what I had on hand and ended up with the following substitutions: splenda not sugar, margarine not butter, skim milk, a dash of nutmeg, and a drop of almond extract. I also added some dried cranberries in some of them. The cranberry cookies weren't bad - I really wish I had added them to all of the cookies. They were a little dry overall and pretty simple/bland tasting but puffy and light. Maybe some kind of gooey frosting would do the trick. They needed to be pressed down as they stayed in balls when they cooked.

These are really good. We pulled them out a little earlier, flattened the tops with a spoon and sprinkled sugar over them. YUM!

Yummy! I substituted the sugar for splenda and used margarine instead of butter since it was all I had. I also added a tablespoon of cinnamon to the recipe. These turned out not too sweet and very moist.

These were great. I used pastry whole wheat flour, and to cut calories I used half the sugar, and half the butter. They worked ou great and they were very easy.

Great recipe, with a good flavor. A pleasure to eat and a treat to make! Very quick to make, would be a good children's recipe. I put 1/2 the sugar in and still found them sweet.

Very delicious. I also added 1 cup minic choc chips to the batter & might try adding a banana instead for next time. Thank you so much for this healthy recipe!

These were great. I added chocolate chunks, but I don't know exactly how much. I just eyeballed it. The cookies were fluffy and not to sweet. My boyfriend did not even mind that I had used whole wheat flour. These are worth a try!
