just awesome! brought them to work and everyone said they were great! will def make this again. however, I did make some substitutions. I ground up whole steel-cut oats as I did not have any instant/quick cook oats. Because of this, they came out denser, chewier and healthier with more fiber. I did add vanilla and cinnamon as some other reviewers suggested. Who doesn't put vanilla in their cookies? I didn't have butterscotch chips but I did have some Ghiradelli white choc. chips! that's it. this is the kind of recipe you can fool around w/a bit and add your own flavors and it will most likely be a good cookie!

These were good, and would be open to some nice interpretations, as butter beans are pretty much a good neutral base. Next time I make these, (and I will make these again), I will add some cilantro and scallions instead of the onions. A nice dollop of pico de gallo on top would finish it off nicely too. Mmmmm, can't wait.

The reviewer from Texas that gave this a one star was not basing her opinion on the recipe the way it was written. You put applesauce and whole wheat flour into a dessert recipe, it's going to change how it tastes, and you really shouldn't be one-starring recipes here if you didn't follow directions. With that said, I followed the recipe as directed (go figure!) and ended up with deliciously crunchy sweet berry bars that were un-put-down-able. The vote was unanimous - this recipe's a winner, and it's been requested for Thanksgiving. And again, people, please don't rate recipes poorly if you took artistic license with them, just don't say anything and chalk it up to a bad idea, ok?
