Karen - oatmeal cookie help please!
Hi Karen! Tonight I tried to make LC oatmeal cookies, altering a simple recipe I had by substituting brown Sugar Twin, Splenda, and whole wheat flour. This recipe I used was as follows:
1 egg
1 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar twin
1 cup Splenda
1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tsp Vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
The cookies came out tasting great, but had a really odd texture. They were very dry and crumbly. I prefer cookies with a chewy, gooey sort of texture (which is why I decided to try making oatmeal cookies in the first place ). I was wondering if you might have a suggestion for getting that texture in these. I thought about adding 1/2 cup of oil, but was not sure if you might have a better suggestion.
Thanks in advance!
Robin
