  • “I added a touch of maple extract, these cookies rocked!Used a cookie scoop–they were bakery perfect. Can put many on the sheet as they do not spread that much.”

  • “My friend’s grandmom also “created” these cookies, which I love, but I lost the recipe over the years.The only difference is her recipe called for wesson vegetable oil in place of the butter.Every time I made these, people always went wild.Great cookies.Thanks for posting.”

  • “I just made a variation of these that, my fianee informed me, ‘rock’.I made half of the recipe normally.To the other half, I added the following crazy mix:-1/4 bag melted Ghiradelli double chocolate chips-1/2 small bag coconut-1/2 teaspoon cinnamon-a wee bit of freshly grated nutmegI have to admit.They didn’t taste too terrible.And I’m sure they were very low in fat and calories.;)”
