  1. Very disappointing ! Did you actually make these? Way too much xylitol … And that stuff’s expensive! Also, they didn’t hold together at all… I followed your directions but used almond butter instead … Another expensive ingredient to throw away.. Maybe you’ve updated this recipe?

  2. If I wanted to use regular sugar, how much would I use instead of the •3/4 cup xylitol (birch derived is healthier than corn derived) .
    Thank you so much for your website. I love it!
    I have to be Gf, corn free, almond free, sweet potato free, tomato free and almost all fruit free. :O(

    1. Hi AdptionMom,

      Glad you’re enjoying the site. Xylitol is substituted cup for cup for table sugar.

      Wow! That’s some intolerance list you have there. Mine is almost as long, but not quite. You’ll find that most of my recipes are tomato-free, as I am allergic. However, I do make the occasional tomato dish for my hubby.

      Take care,
      Carla
