This is an unusual cookie. I followed the recipe as written. The batter is the consistency of brownie batter. The cookies bake up very soft, cakelike, not normal cookie texture. I think they need more salt as well. The people I served these to either loved it or didn't care for them, split about 50-50 so I'm giving it 3 stars.

This is very good, although I found the allspice too strong. I recommend using 1/2 tsp instead of 1 tsp. I have also made this lower fat by replacing 1/2 cup oil with 1 cup pureed prunes (still adding the chopped prunes as indicated). Thanks for sharing!

This is delicious as written. My only advice is to begin well ahead of time (1.5 to 2 hrs) as it takes awhile to cook the ingredients, let cool, and then assemble and cook the dish. It's not hard, but allow enough time.
