Roll tablespoon size cookies into a ball and press onto sheet. (I use a baking stone so I am not sure if you will need to grease and ordinary sheet.) Cook for about 10 minutes or until they look set. They will not brown the same as ordinary cookies because they do not have white or brown sugar in them so don't wait for them to brown! I would recommend pressing lightly on the top of one to see if it is set. Enjoy! Makes 2 dozen cookies.
