I don't have a sugar cookie recipe, but have you tried Peek Freans "Nice" cookies? They are wonderful and low in fat.

Here is a recipe for for fat free sugar cookies I found at web page . If you try them, let us know how they turned out.
Fat Free Sugar Cookies
1 package egg beaters¨ 99% egg substitute -- (4 oz)
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, mix the above ingredients together one at a time. Blend well after each addition (dough should be fairly dry). Drop dough onto a cookie sheet that has been lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cool for about 3-5 minutes before removing from cookie sheet.

Actually, 4 ounces of Egg Beaters is only equal to 2 whole eggs. A cookie recipe with 2 cups of flour, 2 of sugar, and 2 eggs will probably make about 3 dozen cookies, maybe less because they contain no fat.

Gee thanks Mags, This is one of the BETTER fat free cookies I've made. Some tips: They spread when baking so use a scant teaspoon full and place at least 2 inches apart. They brown quickly so keep an eye on them if you're not sure of your oven temperatures. Yes, they make at least 3 dozen cookies, maybe more. I kept eating some as they cooled so didn't get a good count.
I'm going to experiment with this one since I do believe it is such an easy basic recipe that you could do variations with very little adjustments needed. A chocolate and ginger version come to mind.

Hmm, I can't get Eggbeaters, not even 1/2 cup. I wonder if the recipe would work with just egg whites?

Thanks for guinea pigging for us!  I'm glad they came out good, because sugar cookies are one of my favorites.
If you come up with any good variations, let us know.

They probably would, but I guess there's only one way to find out for sure!
Either that or do you have a different brand. I know here in NJ I've seen Better N Eggs and also All Whites, which both are the same as Eggbeaters.
