    I enjoy this cookie. I am not a baker, but these weren't that bad to make. I suggest slightly melting the almond paste about 20 seconds. It mixes well. I used 5 Splenda packets and not Truvia. Also I used fresh blueberries instead of cherries. My husbands and friends loved them. - 9/12/12

    I love these cookies. Maybe because I've gone 17 days without any carbs but wow they are great. I was nervous to make them but happily suprised. I used dried cranberries not cherries because I couldn't find them. Will make again! - 3/2/12

    I baked for 12 min. at 350 degrees to avoid the cookies drying out. They do NOT spread as normal cookies do. Good and a welcome treat after 17 days of no carbs! - 9/8/11

    Incredible!
    The reason I gave this recipe 5 stars is that my entire family loved them and that's hard to do when they aren't dieting. - 1/30/18
