As with every baked goods recipe featuring erythritol, you need to keep an eye on the cook time because the cookies will brown a little quicker than typical sugar-laden varieties. But a little hawk vision while cooking will be rewarded with a tasty treat. Erythritol has the tendency to taste very sweet, so you may not even get through the single serving of 3 cookies before you're superbly satisfied. Enjoy with a little milk if you're not sensitive, or better yet a steaming cup of hot tea for dunking. Enjoy!
