Be sure to use a heat-stable sugar substitute in these sugar-free chocolate chip cookies. Since the substitutes vary in strength, use an amount equal to 3/4 cup regular sugar according to the package. To make the cookies completely sugar free, be sure to use chocolate chips made with a sugar substitute. These cookies freeze well.
