No Bake Cherry Cookies Sugar Free
"I got this recipe from GE. I changed it a little bit since I'm diabetic. Their recipe called for confectioners sugar, sweetened coconut and candied cherries. I opted for Splenda, unsweetened coconut and no sugar added dried cherries to keep the carbs lower."

This is a very good no-bake cookie. I used erythritol which is a little less sweet than sugar (or splenda, I guess) which was good. Next time I'll use only half the amount of sweetener - personal preference, I don't like it really sweet. DH liked them the way they are, though. Anyway I'm looking forward to making them again, and I'll try them with dried cranberries, too. Thanks for sharing!<br/>Made for Healthy Choices ABC.

I am married and a father of 2. I love to hunt, fish, trap, hike, rock climb, camp, garden and cook. By trade I am a welder, but I also make knives and am a semi-professional blacksmith.
My family and I live on a self-sustainable homestead. We raise a big garden of heirloom vegetables. I collect antique varieties of apple, pear, plum, quince, cherry, mulberry and grapes. We raise meat rabbits, chickens for meat and eggs and we raise 2 breeds of pigs.
I make my own beer, cider, perry and wine. I also have a medicinal garden from which I make a lot of herbal remedies. I use organic, self sufficient practices with everything I raise to eat and plan on teaching this to my kids as they grow up.
