I'm giving this 5 stars because I never thought a cookie would be this good when made with whole wheat flour. It is an unadorned sugar cookie. I really wanted something with more flavor, so I added coconut flakes, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Next time, I'll add chopped nuts.

Great recipe for diabetics. I sub the sugar with truvia & also I didn't have vanilla flavoring so I used coconut flavoring. Everyone really liked the coconut but I got to bake them again with vanilla. Very easy to make. I'm glad I found it.

Very basic. Bland. I like baking with whole wheat flour, I enjoy the taste but this recipe is missing something. For my second batch I added a couple drops of almond extract and a nice big dash of cinnamon ~ which were both great decisions. With those modifications I may consider making this recipe again.

These were amazingly delicious and much better than I expected! They were nice and sweet, and mine actually had a soft center which was great. Will definitely make again and I would recommend anyone to try these, even if you are not a fan of whole wheat.

The weirder the name of the recipe, the more I want to try it. When I grew up, cookies were always sweet, most had chocolate, and they were usually soft and chewy. All good. This was very different but in a GOOD way! They're less sweet than I'm used to, and they are excellent with milk or coffee. And, yes, my children who like sweet, chewy cookies that usually include chocolate DID like these, too.

Really delicious, but healthy? No. Great "regular" cookie.

These cookies have a nice, crispy texture. Our family could taste the whole-wheat flavor, and the cookies were also a little bland. The next time I make them, I will probably add some cinnamon, nutmeg, or other spices. Otherwise, these are great!
