I modified to make it healthier: halved the entire recipe; instead of butter, I used 1/2 unsweetened applesauce and 1/2 extra virgin coconut oil; 1/2 stevia and 1/2 regular sugar; 1 c. Ideal brown sugar, oat flour and brown rice krispies cereal. Used chopped bakers chocolate instead of choc. chips. They were yummy, but didn't change shape when I baked them and a little dry and crumbly. I also had to refridgerate the dough for a few hours before I could actually bake them.

Delicious! The only change I made was one I had to - left out the nuts due to allergies. I made 1/4 of the recipe and they turned out great. A nice combination of flavours.

i made these for a church event - people started with one or two but came back and took an extra two or three! I made the cookies a bit smaller than the recipe calls for and it made over 200 cookies and i didn't have a chance to take a single one home! the only thing i added to this repicpe was 1 tsp of salt.

Wonderful cookies! I added a few of my own things like crushed crispy crunch bars and peanut M&M's and they're delicious!

I made half a recipe as directed, but I added 1/2 teaspoon salt. I rolled the dough in a ball and flattened slightly before baking. I had to bake them 14-15 minutes. They came out great; not overly sweet and nice crunchy texture.

Not crisp. Runny batter. Waste of good ingredients. I've baked for more than 50 years, so ineptitude is not the problem. Tried increasing the cooking time; better, but no big difference. Husband ate them anyway, so they got 3 instead of 2.

These cookies turned out great! I substituted the one cup of butter for one cup butter flavored Crisco and the pecans for the walnuts. To keep cookies uniform, I used a 1/4c measuring cup and "loosely" filled it with dough. Then I dumped the cup of dough in my hand and formed it into a tight ball and placed it on my pan- 12 minutes in the oven produced perfect, not too flat cookies! Beware! Recipe makes a very large batch of cookies! Halve recipe if you don't need a million cookies!
