This was a great simple and quick alternative to our usual chocolate chip cookies. We went to make our cookies and realized we didn't have eggs on hand, so went searching for egg-less cookie recipes and wound up here. Turned out to be a great recipe.

I hadn't read the comments before making these, but I did add an egg because I was just too nervous to do a cookie without one! They maybe could use a little more sugar, but if you think of them as a cross between SHORTBREAD and chocolate chip cookies, then these are pretty decent. While they were cooking they smelled like shortbread, and they do have more of that consistency. So don't make these if you think you want real choc chip cookies. However, they're very easy to make, so it's great for a quick treat.

"Cookie" Bars were very dry and had little flavor. I don't will never make them again.

I followed the advice of others and added 2 eggs, 2tsp of vanilla, and 1/4 cup of peanut butter. I also omitted the nuts since I didn't have any. I used a 9x13 pan. They were dry and still bland. I definitely will not make this again.

I followed the advice of a previous reviewer and added 2 eggs prior to adding the dry ingredients. Also, since I do not have a 15x10 inch pan I used my 9x13 pyrex instead. I increased the oven to 375 degrees and baked the mix for 27 minutes. The cookies/bars are great. I would suggest to all future persons trying this recipe to add the eggs, otherwise I don't see how their would be enough moisture in the mix.

I think this was a good recipe! A little dry and a little too rich for me personally but I can promise you there were no complaints at my house and I would definitely use it again. I actually think this would be delicious with vanilla ice cream!

This recipe was very good. My boyfriend doesn't like cake but likes cookies and this was the perfect alternative. Everyone at the party loved them, I did add an extra teaspoon of vanilla.

these were ok. as suggested, i added 1/4 cup peanut butter, about 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1 egg to prevent dryness. There wasn't enough dough to fill the pan, so i transferred it to a 8x8 square pan. it took a little over 40 min. to bake!! in attempts to add flavor, i dipped the tops in melted peanut butter chips and melted choco. chips. I would not eat them if i hadn't dipped them. perhaps my adjustments changed the recipe's flavor, but i will not be making these again. They were pretty good though. Thanks CHRISTCOOKS

I gave a bar to my sister and my husband - both took a nibble, mumbled something about being full, and left the rest of their square on the table. They were dry, floury, and tasteless.

I have to admit, they were very dry. I won't be making them again for a cookie treat or bar but crumbled up or under a scoop of ice cream, they're a quick ice cream topper!

This cooks well and tastes alright, but it's rather dry and crumbly. The bar doesn't hold it's shape that well and would do better with more moist ingredients.

Easy to make, but quite tasteless. I think that if the recipe needs to be "tweeked" so much to make it edible, than perhaps a 1 star rating is what it deserves. I was mislead by the 3 star rating, for sure!

I made these cookies just as the recipies said- they turned out gooey, but MMMMmmm.............so delicious! Once they cooled, they were stilled gooey and scrumptious but not to messy to pick up. My sister also agreed they were wonderful!

These cookie bars are really easy to make, but as other reviewers have said they are very dry. I added an egg and an extra tsp vanilla, but still dry. And too nutty! I would cut back the amount of pecans to at least 1/2 cup, maybe less. Overall, an easy to make bar with few ingredients. Good in a pinch if you have company coming over, but otherwise I probably won't make them again.

Mixture was dry and seemed to be missing something so I added 2 eggs. Used a smaller pan as well. Bars were OK.

I had planned to make this recipe and then got a little nervous when I read the reviews. But I had good results when I added one egg and 1/4 cup peanut butter. I then spread it in a 11 x 9 pan and baked at 325 for longer than the original. The bars are about 1 inch thick, and are moist and chewy--cookie-like--not sticky.

My daughter made this for a foods class assignment and it wasn't very good. Like the others have posted, it was bland and dry. I kept having her double check the recipe as I felt it had to be missing an egg or something...Don't think we will be making it again. I also agree the mixture was very thin in the pan...
