Cookies are going to be hard for me!!!

[Heidi3]

Ok I have a huge issue with holiday cookies...I do not eat many, but I bake a lot of them for cookie swaps and to give away. Even though I do not eat many...I eat at least one of each type as a control to make sure they come out as good as they are supposed to...I can designate the tasting but I can not designate the baking! I love it!...anyway I would love some low carb cookie recipes that do not include flax please!!!...they are going to have to have some kind of flour and that is fine...but most of all they have to be good!...anyone got anything?

How To Prepare:

medium to high
speed for 30 seconds. Add
about half the flour, the 1
cup artificial

until thoroughly combined.
Beat in the remaining flour.
Cover and chill for 1 hour.


Combine the 2 Tbsp.

cinnamon in a small
bowl. Shape dough into 1
inch balls. Roll balls in the
AS-cinnamon mix
and place 2 inches apart on
an ungreased cookie sheet.
