I have used it in cookie recipes and followed the substition rate on the bottle of the agave nectar. No one noticed a difference in my cookies and I actually liked the texture better. (they seemed moister, like they could melt in my mouth.) I have used it in many different kinds of cookies. On occasion I have had to add more dry ingredients, so pay attention to the consistency of the batter of whatever you are baking.

What is the sweetener in blue agave?
Agave nectar or agave syrup is healthier (in some ways) than white sugar, but it is also much more expensive. Also, not all recipies will work out if you substitute the agave because it is a liquid and because it is 1.5 times sweeter than white sugar. Agave is a fructose, which means it has a lower glycemic index than white sugar, which is a sucrose. It is also more natural. However, consuming a lot of agave is just as unhealthy as consuming a lot of sugar, and it can still cause health problems. If your doctor has recommended decreasing your sugar intake, ask him if agave would be an appropriate substitute. It depends on the reason he asked you to decrease your sugar.
