I tried a different recipe that used Swerve granular & Swerve confectioners sugar. Will they work with this recipe & what amounts would I use? I had trouble with the baking time on the other recipe & they came out hard. Are these supposed to be chewy in the middle or crispy all the way thru? I'd like to try this recipe.Reply

I made these tonight and only ate half the batch through sheer will power. It's like eating chocolate air. Very light, fluffy, just melts in your mouth. I used real egg whites, Splenda granular, and unsweetened cocoa powder (generic) and they turned out wonderfully. My only problem is going to be making a batch of these every two days!Reply
