I want to make these today (doing all my cookies today), and you have 1 cup eggbeaters or 4 eggwhites. 1 cup eggbeaters = 4 eggs & 4 eggwhites = 2 eggs. Which did you use?
I tried to look on the link you had, but couldn't find the original recipe.
Thanks!!

1/2 cup eggbeaters (or 4 eggwhites) = equivalent of 2 eggs

They're great! I gave some away as Christmas gifts to my co-workers on Friday. Will let you know what they say after they've had time to sample them. My family likes them very much!

I found powdered egg whites at one of my local grocery stores, so I used the equivalent of 4 egg whites. (you add water with the powder) The dough seemed way too crumbly when I mixed everything together, so I did add probably a few tablespoons of extra water to the batter.

I told Shell yesterday that even though I'd asked her for the correct egg amount, I ended up using too much liquid anyway. When cleaning up, I noticed I'd used my 1/3 cup rather than 1/4 cup, so I had too much egg & too much molasses. (Duh! ) So, the dough wasn't as firm as it probably should have been. But, after baking, they came out really good!! I brought some in to work today for everyone and tried it with my chai tea (my latest favorite Yogi Tea Redbush Chai - very good and needs no sweetener, especially with Silk French Vanilla Creamer - YUMMY!! ) and it is so good!!! I'm glad I have more for myself at home! LOL
