I found this recipe in cooking light for Molasses-Spice cookies that I am making for my family. I would like to make a version that is SB friendly as I love gingersnaps/spice cookies.
Here is the recipe as it was printed. I know I can substitute the flour for whole wheat pastry and the magarine for smart balance and the sugar for splenda. My ? is how do I substitute the molasses, as it is loaded with sugar? 1 tbls is 15 grams.
1 1/3 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon and ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves and salt
1/2 cup firmly packed brn sugar
1/4 cup stick margarine
2 tbls molasses
1 large egg white
1/4 cup sugar
I thought about adding a little sugar free maple syurp to my splenda to make brown sugar, but not sure if there is a substitue for molasses out there. Thanks for your help.

Curious on how these turned out . . . . . .

The Splenda brown sugar blend isn't legal, as it contains white sugar.
I did at one point use the splenda brown sugar until someone on the board informed me that it wasn't legal, so I haven't used it since.
