My husband loved these! And they are very easy to make also. More so than non gluten free cookies, I think. I didn't add the nuts and used crunchy peanut butter and did as the others suggested and used 1 c of white sugar and 1 c of brown sugar.

I made this recipe with 1/4 brown sugar & 3/4 white sugar & no nuts - otherwise, just as written. One reviewer said these cookies were too cakey & right out of the oven I thought so too & actually thought they were just ok. However, by the second day, they were gooey & chewy & very yummy! Great recipe. It's a keeper!

I was invited to a gluten-free, vegetarian potluck and these were my offering. They were AMAZING -- and so popular! Plate was empty when I took it home :-) As so many others, I did adapt the recipe as follows: 1 c. brown sugar and 1 c. white sugar; added 1/2 c. coconut, 1/2 bag choc chips (Ghirardelli), & 1/2 t. baking soda. I did not find them too sweet at all -- but about 1/2 of the peanut butter I used was all-natural and unsweetened.

These are awesome! I even cut the sugar - used 1c brown and 1/2 c white which I would only suggest doing if you are using the chocolate chips. I only had white chocolate chips on hand which worked out beautifully. Had to bake a bit longer since my cookies were on the larger size. Yummy, especially for this gluten-free mama!

I changed the sugar to: 1c white, 1c brown and 1/4 t of baking soda and added some vanilla and coconut and they came out amazing!! I think next time I will reduce the sugar because they were quite sweet already.

These were fabulous! I made them for my son and hubby because they are hard core road bikers and this gives them a lot of protein, carbs, and other great nutrients. I did change it a lil though. I added about a half cup of shredded coconut, 1/4 cup almonds and left out the pecans, I added an extra egg, a little less peanut butter and sugar, and in one batch I put some Hershy's dark chocolate syrup to make them chocolaty :) They turned out perfect! Thanks!

personally, I would give this a 2.5, they were quite cakey, which depending on your preference, could be a good point, so that's why the 3. I will keep looking as I prefer my cookies not cakey at all.

Our local natural foods coop has an almond grinder, so I substituted some fresh ground almond butter for the peanut butter. I also added about 1 tsp each of vanilla extract and cinnamon and the results are divine - no one can resist them. Try swapping the chocolate chips and pecans for white chocolate chunks and dried cranberries or cherries.
