These are actually quite good! It's nice to add a bit of nutrition to a cookie. I did half whole wheat flour and it wasn't really noticeable. Also did half butter/ shortening and half brown/white sugar also. And we did add a little bit of chocolate chips for good measure. Yum!

My kids have always loved this but about a year ago we found our youngest had a peanut allergy, so we've quit making anything with peanut butter. But my 7-year old son requested this today so we omitted the p.b. and used milk chocolate chips instead. Wow, it was still as irresistible as ever, if not more so! Only problem was the chocolate got too thick. Instead of microwaving on full power I would do it on half-power as it recommends on the bag of chips. Also, there was way too much powdered sugar so I'd decrease that to 1 c. I even added about 3 c. wheat chex and it was still great! So much for the workout this morning! :}

I wanted to make a fun, festive (but easy) treat for St. Patrick's Day today and these were perfect! I put in some green and blue food coloring until it was a nice green color. Then I put 3 small balls together and rolled a little snake for a stem and they came out as really cute shamrocks! I didn't have lemon extract or a lemon so I committed a culinary sin and used bottle lemon juice. I loved the taste of the cookies! So did my kids! We got 16 good-size shamrock cookies out of it.
