This was a great recipe! I omitted the icing when I tasted the cookies and they were delish by themselves. They stay fresh and moist for days!

Great recipe! I also used 1/2 wheat flour and 1/2 Splenda and the cookies were perfect. I thought the icing was just right on top of the cookies. It is a simple icing recipe and I think the tablespoon of vanilla was just right. I could not "roll" my dough into balls to make the cookies though because the dough was too gooey. This may have been because of the flour substitution, so instead, I just spooned the dough onto the cookie sheet and that worked just as well.

I gave this four stars because the cookies were yummy! The icing, however, was horrible. I noticed that it seemed a bit much to have 1 tablespoon vanilla, but made it anyways. Maybe 1 teaspoon? Anyways, I will make this again, but with a different icing recipe.

This is one of my all-time favorite cookies for Christmas - I've been making them for years and have given away the recipe many times.

Skipped the frosting - seemed sweet enough on its own. one of my favorite Taste of Home recipies. Did increase amount of spices by half - may put more in next time.

These are fantastic! They were a huge hit at our New Year's party. My only substitutions were I used Splenda in place of 1/2 the sugar and wheat flour for 1/2 of the flour.
