How to Make Fooled Me Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

  1. Beat 1 large egg in a medium bowl.
  2. Add 1/4 cup Splenda, 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Beat with a fork until smooth.
  4. Add 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter and 1/4 cup crunchy peanut butter to the egg/sugar mixture.
  5. Beat with a fork until well combined—about 40 strokes.
  6. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 11x17 inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
  8. Divide the chilled dough into fourths.
  9. Roll each fourth into 4 balls (16 balls total).
  10. Space the dough balls evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  11. Flatten each ball slightly with the tines of a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
  12. Bake for 9-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
  13. Let cool for two minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  14. Enjoy!
