This cookies were great! Easy to make and delicious. Only thing to watch out for- it yields a few more cookies than what is stated in the recipe. Of course, no one is complaining...

I've made bagels in the past with a different recipe and they've always turned out great. But when I found a bagel recipe that took half the amount of time, I decided to give it a try. Unlike many people, I had absolutely no trouble making this dough into 12 equal regular sized bagels. The reason for only a 3 star rating is the fact that they did not bake well. I found they did NOT need the seven minutes of boiling as laid out and the baking time/temperature must be off, because the bagels did not fully cook after being 'golden brown' they cooked in parts but not others. They were more doughy than I would like them to be, but nonetheless good. I'll try again later and hopefully they will work better. But in the meantime, I'm sticking to my other recipe.

Absolutely delicious! My Hungarian grandmother is a tough critic, and she quite enjoyed it. I ran out of butter (guess I should have checked before hand...) and finished with applesauce- couldn't taste the difference. The only negative thing (if you could call it that) is that the bread needed a good 5-10 minutes more in the oven. Overall, gooey goodness! Both loaves disappeared within hours!
