I made these with chopped kit kat bars and added about 1/2 cup of peanut butter - great taste + texture!! I did make slightly small cookies, so I got 23 cookies. I also cut both sugars in half and it was plenty sweet with my kit kat bars. It would be interesting to try other chopped candy bars!

This was my first attempt at making Thai green curry, and this recipe was a good base. I think it heavily depends on the curry paste you have, b/c they vary significantly by flavor and heat. My green curry paste was not very hot, but was flavorful, so even though I increased the amount of curry paste, the dish was missing heat for me. Next time I'll add Thai chili peppers with this particular curry paste. I added lemongrass (cut into large pieces so you can easily remove them before eating), Thai basil (totally essential!!), carrots, and red pepper. I also tried making coconut rice by putting coconut milk into the rice cooker. It was mildly fragrant with coconut, so I might tweak with that more. With the added ingredients I think the curry had a lot more dimension, texture, and flavor, but needed more spicy/heat boost to compare to the Thai curries I had in Thailand! Will add more curry paste and chili pepper next time... or try a different brand of curry paste.

I made these last night and they are really delicious. I don't know about everyone else, but the toffee cookies I've had were always flat and thin so they'd be crispy, yet chewy from the toffee. That's exactly what this was! I baked it at 300 for about 14-15 mins, which got it to spread out so it was nice and crispy. I didn't add pecans b/c I usually don't like nuts in my cookies, but I can imagine it would add a wonderful buttery taste to them. I'll add them next time. I also used irish oatmeal instead of rolled oats (it was an accident b/c I thought I had rolled oats), but I still liked them. They turned out extra nutty and crunchy, giving it a nice contrast to the chewy sweet toffee, but I don't think that texture is for everyone.
