    These were really good. I liked that they are not too sweet and they are so moist and chewy like little cakes. I made them with half brown and white sugar. I should have doubled the recipe because they were gone instantly.

    These have a "spice" flavor and are not real sweet but they are good! I used whole wheat flour instead of white flour and brown sugar instead of white sugar and added 1 extra cup of oats for better consistency.

    These are so good. I followed the recipe exactly and they were not runny at all as mentioned in other posts. Nor did they stick to the pan.

    I was so disappointed with this recipe. I was to make it for my work mates as a Thankyou gift.

    These cookies tasted really good...but they were so soft and delicate I also had a problem getting them off the pan without them falling apart on me(even after cooling over night). The last batch was poured into a cake pan then cut into triangles...they were thicker and actually came out sturdier--maybe these should be oatmeal - Read more ...

    I'm giving this recipe four stars because my hubby and kids rated it as they thought these cookies were very good. I on the other hand did not like them at all. Even though I chilled the dough they spread like crazy and turned out as flat as poker chips. I do like a chewy - Read more ...

    After I made the batter it was far too liquidy for cookies. So... I added a cup of oats and it was still too wet to spoon out. So... I poured it all in a 9"x11" and baked it at 325 for 35 minutes. Scrumptious! Good luck trying to make cookies out of it though!

    This recipe made a puffy soft cookie. I wanted a chewy one so it isn't the one for me.
