Thanks Gobo for posting the recipe! Will be making the cookies for my diabetic neighbour for Christmas.
 
Do you know if it's ok to refrigerate the dough overnight before making? I plan to make regular and diabetic cookie dough tonight and make the cookies tomorrow after work.

Edit: Answered my own question....found this recipe here VGS - View a Recipe - American Diabetes Association

Roll on lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with desired cookie cutters. Sprinkle with sugar-free gelatin. Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven 8 to 10 minutes.
