    Amazing! I actually got 44 out of the recipe. I'm glad that they're only 15 calories each because I think I've already eaten 5 and they just came out of the oven. Next time I'm going to make a triple batch because I doubt these will last very long. - 9/23/11

    OMG! I love these cookies. I really love the low calorie count, because i know that I can't eat just one. I seperated and saved the egg yolks for the chocolate cream pie i am making next. The egg whites beat up well and adding the other ingredients were a no brainer. Best cookie recipe. - 10/15/11
