Just made these and they are a perfectly wonderful cookie. The spice and orange are subtle and not overwhelming at all. Really great with a cup of tea. I used quick oats instead of rolled oats as it is what I had on hand so I cannot tell you how the cookies are with the rolled oats. I do know that the quick oats performed perfectly in the recipe.

Absolutely perfect sugar cookie. Simple goodness. I made them for a recital tea and they were the ideal accompaniment with coffee/tea/punch. I also made a batch with raisins and sprinkled cinnamon sugar on top before baking (instead of the frosting)...I liked this variation even better.

This is an excellent, excellent cookie. Perfect texture, perfect sweetness. I love the old fashioned style cookies. A great accompaniment to a cup of coffee or tea!

I thought these were just grand. If you're looking for a crunch to your peanut butter cookies, these are not yours. Actually I like both types of peanut butter cookies, but my husband loves the moistness and denseness of this recipe. I found the dough seemed sticky at first, but after a few minutes it "tightened" up and I was able to roll the dough into balls. They are not good cookies for packing. They are tender and break easily. For the record I made this recipe with Zimmerman's natural peanut butter, not a big name brand but really good natural peanut butter from Pennsylvania that has no sugar or additives.

A beautiful, delicious cake, worthy of serving as a fall dessert or a Sunday brunch. On the sweet side, but a beautiful consistency and flavor. I used 3 very large Cortland apples and it was just right. If using small to regular sized apples I would definitely be generous.

Lovely dark rich bread. I did not have whole wheat flour,and substituted King Arthur White Whole Wheat(a nice substitute for those who do not care for the heavy-hearty flavor and consistency of regular whole wheat.) It turned out beautifully. Perfect with cream cheese.
