I made some butter from our raw milk, and wanted to use the buttermilk for something. These were good and I will do it again. They are very sweet, so if you so not like sugary cookies you might not favor them. I love them with the milk.

Delicious! I made half of the recipe with maple flavoring and that was also good! When my sister tasted the maple flavored ones she said "oh these would be good with syrup!" I had to tell her that it was because she was tasting maple! Its was subtle but there. Sooo good!!!

These were very disappointing. I followed the recipe exactly, and ten minutes in the oven was definitely not enough time for me. They ended up being extremely moist and fragile, and they were too sweet. Nobody had a second when I served them with tea.

We all loved this! Thanks for the recipe. It went great with my almond tea. I think next time I'll use almond extract just to see how it is with the almond tea. Thanks again.

Awesome cookies - followed the recipe exactly and ended up making three batches in a week for friends and coworkers. Great way to use up that extra buttermilk in the fridge, too!

Mighty tasty, indeed. I first heard of teacakes in a comedy routine of the late, great Jerry Clower from Mississippi, a hilarious story about a Catahoula Cur Dog and 2 boys. I have a Catahoula, but wondered "what's a tea cake?". Now I know. And I know why that boy wrestled that dog to get it back!!

They taste like little clouds, just a little bit too sweet for us. Also had to double the buttermilk. Definitely will make them again, next time with some orange juice or raisins.

This recipe is good but not like the one I remember growing up in the south. This is the best recipe I have tired so far, but it is too sweet and could use a slight less butter. I will make them again but with some slight changes. I also added 1 tsp of lemon flavoring and 1/2 tsp of vanilla, with 1/2 tsp nutmeg.

Very bland. I was disappointed. Even for a tea cookie. I tried experimenting in small batches by adding in a wide range of "chips" and got nothing. *Not worth the calories, is another way of putting it.

I came across this recipe when I was looking for something to use up the small amount of buttermilk I had left from another recipe. I am really glad I did as these were delicious. The batter was quite thick and rather than dropping it on to the cookie sheet, I was squidging it on with the back of a spoon. I'll definitely make these again. Many Thanks.

I was looking for something easy to make to go with hot chocolate and this was it. These were really, really good. "Perfect amount of crispy edge with a nice tender, flavorful middle," says my wife. I will be making these again. TIP: For novice cookie bakers, put no more than a large marble-sized amount on a spoon and drop onto cookie sheet; these are hard to roll into a ball so I didn't even try. (Also, I didn't know the rule about getting the cookies off the cookie sheet after five minutes before putting on rack to cool, so some broke on me for that reason.)

I made these with the hope that they would turn out like my mom's cookies -- cake-like and moist. These turned out like soft sugar cookies. There was no cake-like texture at all. I kept going over and over the recipe wondering if I did something wrong, but I followed the recipe exactly and can't understand why they didn't turn out like most of the other reviewers describe. I do a lot of cookie baking and this is the most disappointing batch I've ever made. Maybe my expectations were too high. It's a shame my mom lost her recipe.

I only just made them and I've eaten 4 of them already. They taste like a soft, chewy, cripsy on the edges vanilla cake. Wish I had some tea but I don't think I can wait that long. I used a cookie scoop which worked fine but it makes the cookie look bumpy. The last batch I smoothed out the scoops with my spatula and they look better.

Good flavor, cake-like cookie. Sweet, but pleasantly simple. Might be good for frosting.
