I found this to be too sweet and I did not use half a cup of splenda, I used LESS! The concept was good, but I think I will need to cut down even more of the sugar. - 3/3/13

These little cookies are Awesome!! The perfect treat to satisfy my sweet tooth. My recipe made 27 cookies, I must have rolled them smaller than you did. I like a thinner, crispier cookie, so on the second pan I flattened them out. Very good!! Thanks!! - 2/3/13
