Ingredients
2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
½ cup smooth or chunky peanut butter
1/3 cup (5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon) light margarine, softened
¼ cup egg substitute
½ cup cream of wheat cereal, uncooked (regular, instant, or quick)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray two baking sheets with vegetable oil cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, beat the brown sugar, peanut butter, margarine, and egg substitute until fluffy. Blend in the cereal and vanilla. Stir in the flour mixed with baking soda to make a stiff dough.
Drop by rounded spoonfuls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Flatten the balls with the bottom of a floured glass or fork. Bake for 8 to 9 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
