I followed the suggestions about beating for 5 minutes, using half brown sugar, switching the amounts of flour and cornmeal, and lowering the oven temp. The texture was good and the taste wasn't bad, but it still lacked flavor.

delicious! i took the suggestions about boiling them in salt water and leaving them out to dry overnight. i also may have added just a bit more salt and butter than recommended... everyone loved them!

This recipe worked out great! In my oven it only took 35 min, so you may want to watch the time. For an icing I tried two different methods - 1. boil 6 tablespoons soy milk (i found a french vanilla flavor), then add 6 ox of semisweet chocolate chips... 2. do the same thing with coconut cream (i found it in the store by the pina colada mix) instead of soy milk. The coconut cream version came out richer and thicker, without tasting like coconut (but it will definitely clog your arteries!)
