I used egg beaters and reduced-fat margarine. It still turned out great. Because of the lower-fat, higher-water content, the cookies puffed - so we had Cinnamon PUFFS! Yum! I rolled them in cinnamon sugar and the whole downstairs smelled wonderful while these gems were baking. They tasted good out of the oven and after a few days too! They reminded me of Dunkin' Donuts' donut holes - except not as greasy, sticky, caloric, or fattening. EVEN BETTER! THe way I made it, the calories: 24; fat grams: .86

I doubled the recipe as others did and was glad I did. After the first batch came out of the oven, my son grabbed one, went to his room then came back out and asked if that's all there was. I told him I had more to make...he said "Good, I'll take this row" and grabbed a whole row off of the cooling rack. Excellent cookies. I decreased the cooking time by 1 minute because we like a chewier cookie. Thanks for the recipe!

These were so easy and fun to make. After reading all the wonderful things written in the reviews I decided to make these for Christmas gifts. Am I ever glad I did... I ended up making about 8 batches! I have a few dozen in the freezer all rolled into balls just waiting to be baked, and they do bake up nicely from the freezer.

These are tasty little things. I added crushed pecans to the cinnamon sugar mixture when I rolled the balls. This added just a little more interest to the taste and appearance. I'm sure I will be making them again.

Excellent cookies. Easy to make. I made them soft and chewy instead of crispy and they were superb. Just decreased time by 2 minutes if you are a chewy fan. Reminded me of cinnamon toast in a cookie form.

These are one of the best cookies I have EVER tasted! They're a cinnamon version of the snickerdoodle. I substituted splenda sugar and egg beaters and they still tasted fantastic! I'm just wondering how they can be so low in calories, you definitely can't taste it!

my mouth is full of these yummy little things as i type this review. My bf and I declare them wonderful, excellent for our x'mas cookie trays. I reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup as i don't really like very sweet cookies. Made some variations - rolled them in cinn-sugar, icing sugar (for cute little crackle cookies), finely chopped toasted peanuts (major yummy!) and finally, i pressed some mini chips on them. Result - delicious and beautiful little things! Thanks so much for this recipe. Edited to add - i posted a pic of the cookies!

These cookies get an A+ on taste and ease of preparation. I have already given the recipe out to friends who tasted them. I will definately make these again.

These are fantastic cookies! I used unsalted butter instead of margarine, and dropped most of them by heaping tsp about 2 inches apart (baking time: 15-16 minutes), and others by rounded tsp (baking time: 12-13 minutes). Also, I lined the cookie sheets with parchment paper. Thanks for a great recipe!

Made these the other night and my daughter said that I should keep this recipe and when I asked what I should rate this she said "5 stars" They were very good...and didn't last long around my house. Thanks for this keeper
