These turned out great - crispy and chewy! I followed the other reviewers suggestions and added the extra egg, and I reduced the Tang to 1/3 cup - though I thought they could've been more orangey so next time I'll bring that back to a 1/2 cup. I also think they'd be fantastic with semi-sweet chocolate chips - I'm going to try this as well!

These were great. I made some for our Church and they liked them so much I had to come home that nite and run some copies off for the ones that wanted them. In return they were going to run copies off for their friends.

Mine turned out really bitter. I did what most reviewers did and added another egg and cut back on the orange. I could not find Tang at my grocery store. Maybe If I use that it wouldn't taste so bad. Will try again if I can ever find tang.

My family loved these cookies. I made them with the suggested changes, 2 cups flour, 2 eggs, 1/3 cup Tang, and white Nestle chips. I will definitely make them again.

I did not care for these. They're expensive to make and when you consider that they are too sweet and tart to eat, the cost is prohibitive. I followed the direction to a tee but the batter was totally dry and crumbly, the temperature listed was too hot and the first pan burned to a crisp. I reduced the heat to 350 and the time to 10 minutes which gave a better texture cookie, but still way to sweet to put in a jar and give for Xmas. Never again.

Great recipe if you modify according to the other reviews. You can certainly use less sugar if you want a tangier cookie.

Hadn't read the other reviews, but figured out "the fix" on my own- added one more egg, and a healthy pinch of lemonade mix, along with the Tang already in it- also added extra vanilla chips. My kids WILL NOT STOP SNAGGIN' 'EM!!! They're easy, bake up perfectly at 375, 12 min. They're kinda sweet, but what do you expect from a cookie made from Tang? Texture is perfect, and I would readily recommend them for a nice change of pace! :o)

My mother was visiting while I was baking these cookies and she wasn't sure that she wanted a taste. Orange flavored cookies with vanilla chips didn't catch her interest at all. When the cookies were done she did taste them and immediately took another. She liked them so much that she asked for a copy of the recipe. I took the advice of other reviewers and cut the Tang to 1/3 cup and used 2 eggs instead of 1. They turned out perfect.

I'm sorry to say this cookie does not taste like a dreamcicle. About all you can taste is the tang mix. The cookie tasted good but not as the name refers to. The white chocolate gets lost in the orange flavor.

Good ONLY with the changes reviewers suggested. Reduce Tang to 1/3 cup, add 1/4 tsp salt, use 2 eggs and include another 3 Tblsp. flour. Baked at 350 for 10 minutes and they came out soft and chewy. Think they would awful tangy-sweet if recipe was kept as originally shown. Just being honest! Thank you for fixing it with the past suggestions, so I wasn't disappointed!

I was really excited about this recipe, but it just didn't pan out quite right. Way too Tangy(c) for my tastes. After making half the batch, we changed the second half, to try to fix the flavors. It turned out better. Next time, I'll be greatly reducing the Tang(c) to 1/4 cup and reducing the sugar to 1/2 cup. I'll be keeping with the 2 eggs and 2 cups of flour that have been suggested. Also, since I used White chocolate chips instead of Vanilla, I needed to add more Vanilla extract. The cookies from the original recipe tasted fine mixed in with Vanilla Ice Cream.

GREAT COOKIE! I did not cook them until the tops were lightly brown, I pulled them out a bit early and am glad I did. Next time I will lighten up on the tang due to the richness/sweetness of it. But still YUMMY!

I live in New Zealand and we can't get vanilla chips or Tang. So I replaced with Choc chips and made a Jaffa cookie!! Having lived in US I knew what Tang was and replaced with similar item here. All the kids loved it!! General adult comment was it was too rich. Next time will cut down the amount of orange drink flavour. But an overall winner with the Kiwi's!!

I actually got 29 cookies from the recipe. I also made the changes that were suggested. I used 2 eggs, 2 cups of flour. The cookie dough took some elbow work to get it all mixed together. However, the cookies turned out nice. My 4 year old, isn't to fond of them. Everyone else seems to enjoy them. I also had to cut down the baking time to about 7 minutes.

I was very hesitant to try this recipe because of the mixed reviews, but it sounded so delicious that I gave it a try. With a few changes to the original recipe--2 cups of flour, 2 eggs, and only 1/3 cup of Tang--it's a real winner! I can only imagine, however, how terrible they would be without these changes. I made 6 dozen of these for a company cookie exchange, and everyone loved them, so they appeal to a lot of people. They are a welcomed changed from the typical cookie.

It's been a while since I've had GOOD cookies, but these definitely qualified as such. I changed the recipe a little bit...used 2 eggs, 2 cups of flour, 1/4 t salt and white chocolate chips, and these came out SO GOOD. The flavor is great, and if you're a cookie dough fiend, the dough is fantastic. I used my small Pampered Chef cookie scoop and got 75 two bite cookies out of this recipe. They look great and they taste awesome.
