I really wanted this recipe to be great, but alas, it isn't. I read all of the reviews here and was worried the cookies would be dry. I added 1/4 cup milk to the recipe, but otherwise followed it exactly. The cookies look good and taste good, but they are still very dry. I made sure not to over bake them, too. They literally suck the saliva right out of your mouth. You need a tall glass of milk or cup of coffee to wash these down with, but why bother when there are so many NOT dry recipes to choose from? My kids will eat them so they won't go to waste, but I won't be making these again.

These were very easy to make (my 4-year-old could do it) and had good flavors. Followed the recipe exactly and came out looking and perfect after 7 minutes. We will definitely make them again.

Great recipe. I made tool shaped cookies for my son's birthday, so it was hard to move them to the cookie sheet and some of them broke (I don't bake, so it was probably me and not the recipe) but they tasted great. They aren't too sweet, which we loved.

5 stars for the chewy oat-like flavor with orange and lemon extract. Added wheatgerm, ground flaxseed and whole wheat flour. Came out great with only using 1/2c of all purpose flour. I halved the recipe, only half c butter available.

This is a great recipe, I just finished them up. Word of warning, these do NOT make 60 cookies, unless they are paper thin or super tiny. I was using them to give to kids for Valentines and they would be wrapped individually so I didn't want them to fall apart. They made 30.

I'm rating this 4 stars for the great taste, but I really struggled with the dough not to mention finding oat flour in my area. This is not a fault of the recipe however and will try again.

I love this recipe! The dough is very easy to work with and the cookies melt in your mouth. I made mine into linzer cookies with raspberry jam and they are amazing! I will definitely use this recipe again.

Awesome cookies. The use of oat flour and confectioners sugar makes this dough incredibly easy to work with-even my five year old had no problems. The cookies were soft and flavorful; very yummy! I added some lemon extract to one batch with excellent results.
