The recipe AS IS : 3 starts But I took some member's advice and halved both the butter and shortening (1/2 c & 1/4 C respectively), and the cookie came out amazing! So with the changes made, a 5 star recipe. Definitely will make again....yum!

A great cookie, all around! I wasn't too sure about the whole wheat, but it really went well with all the other flavours and textures. The only thing about these cookies - they need to be watched at the very end as they will overbrown in a split second.

Overall a good recipe. Just needs about 1 cup of butter or shortening (not both, and not more than that!! Waaay too mushy then). Also, cooking time is more than 10 minutes. I needed about twice that just so they would firm up a bit. Other than that, a good recipe!

I've made these twice already once with white chips and once with milk chocolate chips. Both times my cookie monsters begged for more!

I really liked this cookie and so did the family! The only thing I changed was that I skipped the shortening (I accidentally omitted it and didn't realize until the end) and as a result the cooking time. I bumped the temp up to 375 and baked for 13-14 minutes. They were cake-like and delish. No issues of flat cookies like the previous reviews stated. I will definately make again.

i loved the cookies. they were just phenomenal the the salty-ness of the pistachios brought out the sweater side of the cookie. the brown sugar and the white sugar combination was just wonderful and it just brought the chewyness to the cookie. it was just a very delicious cookie!!

These are amazing. Super buttery (as you can imagine reading that recipe). I love that the wheat flour and rolled oats in it - gives it a nice texture. The pistachio flavor doesn't really come out, however. I might try this with macadamias.
