I was one of the ones that DID NOT get the right result. I was lookng for FLAT AND SOFT and got thick and crunchy. But they were so good! YUMMY! Part of my problem was that I didn't realize that we didn't have eggs- I subbed 2 TBLS Milk and 1 TBLS olive oil. THESE COOKIES WERE GONE THE NEXT DAY- really good.

These cookies are so good! I really like them a lot. They aren't too sweet which is good for me. I did use 3/4 cup of brown and white sugars and 1tsp. salt and 1 cup chopped pecans. Other than that I didn't make any other changes. These cookies rock!

These are awesome!!! I also cut the recipe in half and added craisins. YUMMY!!! Mine were very flat but were still great! Next time I'll try another reviewer suggestion to make them a little fluffier.

These were good, but I did add a few things to make them better. I did half oatmeal and half rice krispie cereal and added in chopped walnuts. Delicious!

I just pulled these out of the oven and I tested on and they are so yummy! My beagle also came running into the kitchen when I pulled them out, so they must smell pretty good too! :) I cut the recipe in half, since it is just my husband and I, but I didn't change anything. Yum. Just want this pregnant lady needed!

Wonderful! I made a few very small modifications - I added a pinch of cinnamon and slightly more vanilla & chocolate than the recipe called for. I also rolled the dough into balls and cooked them like that, so the cookies were even and not flat at all. They came out PERFECTLY - light & crisp on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. I love these cookies and I will definitely make them again. All the ingredients are things I nearly always have in my kitchen, and they're super easy to make.

Halved the recipe and here are my changes: added a trail mix of nuts/raisins/M & M's to it, also added some coconut, and some chunky peanut butter. Hubby and I LOVE them and the recipe is a keeper. Our local store, Publix, used to make Cowboy Cookies and I have been trying to come up with something as satisfying and think I found it - thanks!

Followed some suggestions by other reviewers and added a little less sugar and they're beautiful. Added extra vanilla and double the chocolate chips because - well, I like chocolate! Also added pecans and these cookies are AWESOME. They will be a repeat customer in my house and will make an appearance on my Christmas cookie tray.

Exactly what I was looking for. No problems with them being flat. Made as directed except I halved the recipe and added raisins.

I made a few changes to make the recipe a little healthier. I substituted all purpose flour for whole wheat flour and substituted the white sugar with Splenda. I also used only 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and added a 1/2 cup of raisens. Turned out great!

I LOVE this recipe. I don't change a thing. I have been known to sit down with a bowl of this batter and polish it off...had to go on Weight Watchers after a few months of that!

I thought they were so so, but hubbie liked them, so I'll make them again, maybe adding a little coconut.

Worked perfectly for me. Very similar to cowboy cookies my mother made in the 50's. I think her recipe was from a magazine clipping that got lost long ago.

These are the best cookies ever if you cook them 'just' right. The trick to this is cook it for 15 minutes and and after the timer goes off if they are a little bit golden around the edges then take them out even if they don't look cooked all the way and let them cool then eat them with a glass of milk.

Delicious, chewy cookies. Like other reviewers have mentioned, they are kind of flat, but that doesn't seem to negatively affect the texture. I will make again with modifications suggested by others to combat flatness. Thanks!

These were some of the best oatmeal cookies I've ever tried. I used cinnamon chips instead of chocolate (because I wanted to use them up)and they tasted fantastic! The only problem I had was that the cookies spread a little more than I liked, so I added another handful of oatmeal to the rest of the dough, and the were perfect! Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe!

well, i took some suggestions of others and used only 3/4 c of both sugars, 2 tsp vanilla, 1egg + 1 yolk. I didnt have a sifter so I could sift the dry ingredients and they never spread. i thought the dough looked dry but i tried anyway. in the oven after 10 minutes i attempted to flatten them, they were in there for about 20 minutes and they are really cakey and crumbly. i'll try again though..
