This recipe was great. Very chocolaty, a bit cake-like, and delicious. The only thing I changed is that I used Agave Nectar instead of corn syrup, because that's all I have. They turned out great, and the mix was just the right consistency. These are so easy; I'm sure I'll make them again and again.

I looked through the reviews of this before i tried it! I decided to go with the 2 whole eggs and maple syrup instead of corn syrup. I used belgian chocolate instead of cocoa because i didn't have any cocoa handy. I know this pretty much changes the recipe but its the same base in principle and it worked for me! The cookies spread out a bit but i started with a tester, so that went well! My kids LOVED them and they turned out super.

I think these are actually really delicious. The only problem is they are a little dry when done, so I am not sure what I'd want to change. I followed the recipe along with some of the suggestions. I used 1 egg and one egg white; I used maple syrup instead of corn syrup (I only used probably about 1/6 of a cup or less--I'd probably want to try lite corn syrup next time because the sugar was far too much and I could taste the maple); I also had to add just a splash of milk to get it all mixed together. I baked a small portion of the mix, and then decided to mix the rest with some espresso. I added just a small bit (probably 1-2 tbs worth), and it's absolutely delicious! I had to add just a little more flour (maybe a teaspoon) and some more oats to get it back to a decent consistency, but I definitely prefer it with the espresso! I'm new to baking, so if anyone has any hints as to how to get the cookies more moist without adding too much more sugar (more corn syrup, etc.) I'd greatly appreciate it! Maybe the suggestion of a banana would work.

Disclaimer: I made these as brownies, not cookies. Used whole eggs, and added ONE RIPE MASHED BANANA (which really helps with the texture & sweetness). Also added some mini-marshmallows. Very tasty and low fat. Cut into about 16 small, square brownies. The banana taste with the chocolate is amazing. Baked at 350 for 30 min.

Easy to prepare, and pretty good tasting too. Mine came out a bit crispy on the edges, but chewy on the inside. They weren't overly chocolatey.

Quite yummy...I've been making these for about 4 months now, and just last week at the store, I purchased an Odawala Bar that tastes EXACTLY like these (minus the almonds). And those are over a buck each! I made some modifications to the recipe as well. I use 1/3 cup whole wheat flour and 1/3 cup wheat germ (and no AP flour). As other readers have suggested, I use 2 whole eggs instead of 2 egg whites. And I let them cool on the baking sheet for at least 2-3 minutes before removing them to a wire rack.

Delicious! I did make two significant changes: I used the whole egg, and instead of unsweetened cocoa, I actually used Mexican-spiced ground chocolate (which is actually just a hot cocoa mix that I happened to have at home). They came out moist and chewy and delicious - more like cookies than brownies though.

Yum! At my husbands request I did add some chocolate and butterscotch chips. These are not the prettiest cookies in the world...but they are tasty!

For those who need a quick and easy chocolate(and low-calorie)fix, this can help! While not the sweetest of treats, this does have a nice chocolate taste. I didn't have any corn syrup so I substituted an equal measure of honey. The cookies turned out great and I will have no problem making them again when I need a cookie quick fix.

I tried this recipe to find alternatives to little debbie cakes in my sons lunch. The only thing I changed was adding the 2 egg yellows. My son loved them and said he would like them in his lunch. I thought they were a decent chocolate low fat dessert. Of course full fat is better!

I loved this recipe!! The cookies came out soft and chewy with just the right amount of chocolate flavour. At first I thought they would come out small but they expanded a nice bit without flattening. I will make these again. Excellent recipe!

Surprisingly enough, this recipe was fairly moist. I did change some things since the recipe came out really sticky when I followed it. I used maple syrup since I had no corn syrup, also I added about a quarter cup of milk and added a whole cup of flour instead of just 2/3 cup. I also added only 1/2 a cup of sugar instead and the cookies turned out to be the perfect sweetness. I will definitely bake this again.

i found these cookies rather a bit too sweet...i added some extra corn syrup as recommended and the cookies came out with a rather overpowering corn-syrup taste. next time i think i'll just add an extra egg or too. (I also think that these taste much better with milk because the liquid dilutes that corn syrup)

i made this using two whole eggs after reading the reviews from everyone else. i also used honey instead of corn syrup to add more flavour. They were not that great the first day, but i found they got better over the next couple days. i would make them again
