Definitely a keeper!! I also used 2 eggs, 2 cups of flour and 1/3 c. orange drink as suggested by others. Also DO NOT bake for 10-12 minutes! I used this recipe to break in my brand new oven and they were perfect when baked for only 8 minutes :)

OMG! Best cookie ever! Tastes just like a dreamsickle:) Some of the tips are almost right, but not quite. First let me say I live not much above sea level, and elevation may be part of peoples issues. Leave the tang at 1/2 cup. Just make it 1 tsp of baking soda...absolutely no need for baking powder. Double the vanilla. At least 3 cups of flour not two. The dough for this cookie should be the same consistancy as for chocolate chip cookies. If it's raining or the humidity is really high...you may need a bit more. The only extra ingredient I added was a cup of dark brown sugar. I did use two eggs. Wonderful cookie. One other tip...at my grocery store, tang is NOT found with the other dry drink mixes like countrytime lemonade. Take a look on your bottled juice aisle. It will probably be on a top shelf. This isn't a product people buy everyday, but has a wonderful taste for the cookies. I baked at 350 for 12 minutes, and let them rest on the pan for about a minute before I moved them to let them cool.

I did as the other reviewers suggested and changed things up a bit. I used 2 eggs, 2 C flour, and 1/3 C Tang. I baked them on 350 for 12 mins. I ended up with 3 dozen smallish cookies. They were absolutely fabulous with the changes I made. I am going to give these as Christmas gifts with the Christmas Orange book. YUMMY!

I added 2 cups of flour and 1/3 cup of Tang. I think I could have added less Tang. I'm not sure about this recipe. I also added 2 eggs like everyone else. The cookies did not turn out the way I would have hoped. I will try again maybe with less Tang.

I used tang per reviews, I thought they were way to sweet! and the vanilla chips were overkill. I will not make these again.
