1
Preheat oven to 325u00b0F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or silicone liners, set aside.
-
2
In a medium bowl, mix all wet ingredients until smooth and creamy (peanut butter, Waldens spread, and egg).
-
3
In a small bowl, mix the dry ingredients enough to break up any lumps. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, stir until well combined.
-
4
Spoon by 1-tablespoon cookie scoop at least 1 inch apart onto baking sheets to allow for spreading a little.
-
5
For a softer cookie, bake 25 minutes, or until bottoms just begin to brown.
-
6
Transfer to cooling rack. Cookies will become firm when cool, with a soft, chewy inside.

1. If you can't get the Walden Farms spread, use peanut butter and add 2 teaspoons sugar free maple syrup and 1 teaspoon. vanilla extract. Omit the ginger. The carbs will be slightly higher, and the flavor will be different, but the cookies will work.

2. Hoosier Hill peanut butter powder is not the same as PB2, or other products with added sugar and other ingredients. If you don't have peanut flour, use 2 tablespoons coconut flour instead. Let batter rest 20 minutes before scooping so it thickens a bit more.

3. I tried using Sukrin Gold with this cookie, but it does not work as well. The cookie flattens and spreads more, and the flavor is not as nice as the Just Like Sugar. If that's what you have, though, use a little less than the 1/3 cup in the recipe, and taste before adding any more. The Sukrin Gold tends to be sweeter than the Just Like Sugar. If you use Sukrin, count 1 net carb per cookie.
