I'd rate it 5 stars except there was way too much cilantro for my tastes. Made it to-the-letter the first time and the flavor was overpowering. The second time, I cut back on cilantro to about 1/2 tsp. and also doubled the chipotle peppers for a smokier taste. With those two changes it was excellent.

Excellent! Like the previous reviewer, I doubled the recipe and added dried cranberries along with the white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts. The dough gets very thick at the end when you're adding the oats, nuts, etc., so folding those in with your hands may be easier than trying to use a spoon. The most important thing here is to NOT overbake! My first batch came very dry and hard after 12 minutes with just so-so flavor. After experimenting, I found 9 minutes was perfect. When the edges are golden brown, and maybe a little on the top, they're done.
