Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 2.) With an electric mixer, cream the butter and cream cheese until soft and well combined. Add the Splenda and stevia/FOS blend, and cream until well combined. Add the egg and the vanilla, and beat until well combined. 3.) Sift the soy powder, then resift with the salt and baking powder. Add the powders to the butter mixture.

Butter or spray cookie sheets with non-stick cooking spray. Roll the dough into small balls and place them on the sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.

These sound delicious!! I will try them at a later date. I can't have just one of anything sweet. I need to wait until I have more self control.

Couple questions...

1/2 cup splenda/ 2 tbls. stevia

Can you use liquid splenda in place of this? How much?

sifted soy powder

Is this soy flour or something else?

Thanks Sherri!

Hi there angeleize! Yes, it's soy flour and use splenda granules. I havn't tried it with the liquid splenda. You may want to experiment with it though. Let me know how it works out if you do.
