Hi, I don't know if this helps you or not but I have a Cookbook called The Low Carb Comfort Food cookbook and there's a recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies that's very good. It uses Splenda and it replaces the flours with Almond meal flour and all. I bought my book but you could check it out at the Library to try. We love it! My husband is on low carb for high Cholesterol etc....We don't do the Atkins but the concept is very similar. Hope this helps

I haven't made cookies yet, but I have had really good luck with other sugar free desserts. So far I have only used splenda for the sugar substitute, and they taste good. Try the Splenda website, they do have several recipes there. I think it's all trial and error, mix up a batch and bake a few at a time and see if you need to make adjustments for taste. A few times I have done used the search engine and found some interesting recipes. Victoria Bowen also has a cookbook for WLS patients, and I have been happy with all the recipes so far. I have also heard that we can tolerate Turbinado sugar (I have not tried it yet), but maybe you could do 1/2 and 1/2. Good luck
