I used this recipe to make some healthier cookies for my family, a good portion of whom are diabetic. The cookies came out great! I used margarine instead of oil like most other people and used the splenda as a substitute for sugar. Personally, I don't like the after taste of sugar substitutes. But besides that, the cookies tasted like regular good peanut butter cookies. The consistencies was fine.

I liked these a lot! I did use melted butter instead of oil, just as a preference, and I added butterscotch chips at the end, before baking, because I had some on hand and I thought it would be yummy. It was! I only added a half a package, and it was almost too many. I thought the texture was just fine, despite the other reviews!
