I'm going to try this recipe with Splenda. Will let you know how it turns out. Hope it will since I'm on the no sugar/white flour diet.

At first I was concerned when I realized there was no flour. I thought it was a mistake. But I made them anyways and was so glad I did. Yummy and ridiculously easy to make. They come out very thin and delicate but so tasty.

Rated 5 stars for simplicity and taste. It wasn't until after I made these that I noticed they are basically like peanut butter cookies, and that one could substitute any nut butter with similar results. They are lighter and crisper than peanut butter cookies, however, and of course they taste like sesame! Couldn't have been easier.

4 1/2 stars. Yum. DH liked these with tea. I was also wondering if these would turn out ok with no flour but they do. However I actually would use a tad more sugar next time I think and I am usually one to reduce sugar in baking sweets. I used mostly white sugar and a little raw cane sugar as I had hardly any left. I also used egg replacer and mixed the baking soda into it which worked well. I love the fact that these are gluten free. I would make these again with all raw cane sugar.

The cookies tasted great, much like halvah, however they fell were much too crumbly.
