Ingredients

1 2/3 cups flour, all-purpose
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup brown sugar firmly packed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup peanut butter reduced fat, smooth
1 1/2 tablespoons corn syrup, light
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup liquid egg substitute or 1 egg
1 x nonstick cooking spray
3 tablespoons sugar granulated

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl; stir well, and set aside.

Combine brown sugar, oil, 1/4 C granulated sugar, and peanut butter in a large bowl; beat at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended.

Add corn syrup, vanilla, and egg; beat well.

Stir in flour mixture.

Coat hands lightly with cooking spray and shape dough into 48 1-inch balls.

Roll balls in 3 T granulated sugar, and place 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray.

Flatten balls with the bottom of a glass.

Bake at 375 degrees F for 7 minutes or until lightly browned.

Remove cookies from pans, and let cool on wire racks.

These are very, very good.

I was quite surprised. Be sure and don't over bake them or they become like rocks.

Death By Chocolate

A spectacular cake, but be prepared for snags in the preparation. I used Swiss chocolate for the mousse and had it seize up 2 separate times when I tried to add the egg yolks. I finally used domestic chocolate chips with a bit of cream, and the mousse went smoothly. Worth the trouble? Yes, probably.
