CHOCOLATE-CHIP-WALNUT COOKIES~MY WAY... This is an old family recipe that I have tweaked a bit using 'Splenda' products instead of sugar. I am always experimenting with recipes and replacing the sugar with 'Splenda' products ... working to help keep my blood sugar in check and at the same time attempting to satisfy my sweet tooth on occasion. Maybe it will help others with diabetes. Unfortunately, I don't have a carbohydrate or calorie count per cookie. :(
