A delicious not-too-sweet cookie/biscuit! Since they aren’t too sweet, it is possible to enjoy more than just one or two of these! I had to change a few things in the recipe: I didn't have cornstarch, so I omitted from the recipe. Also, I used all-purpose flour, because I didn't have self-rising flour. In the end, the cookies were still delicious! The taste closely resembles a Russian Tea Cake. I advise serving these with an afternoon tea.

Really good! Hubbie told me "these are not a biscuit, this is a cookie." Great with a morning cup of coffee. My oats didn't stick but they are still good and easy!

I had planned to have these with our main meal, but as I made them I kept thinking "These seem more like cookies than biscuits." Then it dawned on me that in the UK, biscuits ARE cookies! That's what I get for being Southern. Other than that little mix-up they were great. They really do melt in your mouth and they left my dad begging for more. Absolutely delicious!

What a wonderful recipe this is! They looked beautiful and tasted delicious. I made 24 cookies and did have to add more oatmeal, which was no problem at all. Thanks for a great recipe!

These are delicious. But I figured out that "biscuit" means cookie across the pond... These reminded me of Lorne Doone cookies... thanx for the recipe. I will definitely make again...

These are very good, but mine did not spread at all (followed recipe exactly) so they don't look much like the picture. They came out like little buttons. I also had a hard time getting the oats to stick to the dough.

Delicious! Not too sweet; nice and light - perfect with a cup of tea. For what it's worth, I don't think of these as being traditionally English. The only biscuits I can think of that resemble these in any way are Hob Nobs. I associate oaty biscuits with Scotland more than England. But anyway, these are recommended. Thanks!

Comes out perfect every time. I add some vanilla sugar to the oatmeal to make it slightly sweeter. Try not to substitute margarine for butter if you can help it, it really doesn't do the recipe justice.

Simply amazing. The rolled oats gives extra crunch & texture to the deliciously crisp cookie. Don't omit it, okay? (:
