Simple and easy to made. It's a good and healthy snack for my little girl.

Made some modifications by using what I had on hand: Turbinado sugar subbed for the honey. Plain yogurt subbed for the buttermilk. Olive oil subbed for the butter. Also ran some Craisins through the chopper and added them. The family seems to like them as evidenced by their quick disappearance!

These came out really good. Do not expect them to be sweet or cookie like in any way. They are crackers, so they are pretty plain. I had to bake them for 10 minutes rather than 5 to get them crunchy.

The recipe was easy to follow and made a good basic dough for cutting shapes out of, but my daughter wouldn't eat the cookies. However, I think the recipe would be very easy to modify with spices (nutmeg or cinnamon), a bit more sugar or honey and vanilla.

-Changes I made: 3tsp Honey, 1/2cup all purpose flour, 1/4cup whole wheat flour. -dough was very, very easy to work with. -had a hearty oatmeal biscuit flavor, but worked very well with a little icing and sprinkles. -When I found the recipe I was looking for something with a better nutritional value to replace a sugar cookie because I promised the kids we would make cookies with sprinkles. - I look forward to playing with the recipe, maybe adding cinnamon, or ginger, vanilla, maybe even chocolate. Add just enough icing so sprinkles will stick and this is a great rainy day cookie making recipe without being over the top in sugar levels.

Wonderful. I used an extra teaspoon of honey and they were still not sweet at all; great treat for my 5-year-old, and easy to work with. I used cold butter, and for buttermilk I used skim milk with a bit of lime juice. My pan was ungreased and I had no problem with the cookies sticking. Fun easy treat! Thanks for the recipe!

Great recipe! Buttery and soft right out of the oven, I really don't know how they keep because my family ate them up. We sprinkled cinnamon-sugar over them to sweeten.

I will never make them again. They tasted more like a biscuit and had very little flavor. I had to add some brown sugar and lots of cinnamon and they were more edible after that, but still not all that great. They didn't meet my expectations at all!

I made these using whole wheat flour and I added a good deal of vanilla and about 1-2 tablespoons of Splenda, based on the other reviews. They turned out great. A bit chewier than I would have liked, but I think that is due to the whole wheat flour. Oh, I also added about 1/4t cinnamon. I'll deffinately make these again- they'd be great to make with kids!

Very easy to make and tasted great (bland and not too sweet... which is what my family likes)! I followed the recipe exactly except I used 1/2 of butter stated in the recipe and other 1/2 used sweet apple sauce. My son loved it! Thanks for sharing this recipe.

I'd give this 5 stars based on how mine turned out, but since I didn't follow the directions exactly, I'll tell you what I did do: I used Butter Buds instead of butter, so they'd be fat free. I used 3 Tbsp. honey instead of 2 tsp. And I added 1/2 tsp. each vanilla and almond extracts. Then I used 1/4 cup whole wheat flour with the 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour. I ended up with a sticky dough, so added more of each flour. The cookies came out puffy and YUMMY! Just enough sweet to satisfy my daughter, and I thougt they were great! My daughter likes to roll and decorate cookies, but I don't want sweets too often, so these are a great compromise. You could decorate them with colored peanut butter or Nutella. For breakfast, my daughter dunked her name (we have letter cutters) in syrup and icing left over from some Dunkables. We thought these were really fantastic!

I made them following the exact directions and was pleased with the outcome. They do have a hint of honey flavor- not too terribly bland!

Very easy to make and fun to do with the kids! My 6 year old did all the mixing and rolling while the 2 year old loved to help color and cut the dough. We used playdoh cutters to cut the dough. I also added a teaspoon of vanilla to help with the flavor, and added about 1/4 cup more flour. They still didn't have all that much taste but the girls had fun making them. I also made them thicker. So I had the oven at 350 and cooked for about 8-10 min. otherwise the bottoms were burned and the top wasn't cooked. Thanks for the great recipe!

Although it was easy to make, I ended up throwing out the entire batch of cookies. They were very bland and no one would eat them.

My son and I really enjoyed making these, but I must have done something wrong because my dough was way too wet and sticky. I added more flour (alot) and that, of course, really affected the taste, my 2 year old ate them anyway, but I'd love to try again. Perhaps using the Saco powdered buttermilk (mixed according to instructions) instead of the real thing was the problem? I love the recipe, I just want to get better results!
