alluringknitwit – I’m so glad they worked out better for you after the dough chilled in the fridge.

UPDATE: After refrigerating the dough overnight, the cookies turned out higher and chewier. They didn’t flatten out nearly as much as originally. This made all the difference in the final product. I think because of the amount of butter in this recipe, it is imperative to chill the dough thoroughly before baking.

Not what I expected, but very yummy nonetheless. She means it when she says to space them at least 2 inches apart. Do not skimp on the spacing. I chilled each batch in the freezer about 10 minutes before putting in the oven and they still spread out flat, almost like a toffee type cookie. Make sure you have a glass of milk with them as they are very sweet, but very tasty. Also, I drizzled them with an orange glaze after transferring them to the cooling rack. Yum.

I loved these! They were delicious and – I hate to say it – but more yummy than my favorite oatmeal raisn cookies. Delicious! They only lasted in my house for a couple hours. Thanks so much for posting!

I’ve wasted a whole afternoon trying to make these. They’re spreading all over the cookie sheet, and are as thin as the liner. Tried remixing, adding a little more flour with no success, tried adding baking powder without success. Definitely major fail.

These were a major fail for me. I love all the ingredients used, but there were several issues. They were too sweet for one thing and were too thin after being baked. Even after letting them cool completely on the Silpat lined pan, they were too thin and many cracked or fell apart. I only baked half of the recipe and put the remaining dough in the refrigerator until I can decide what I need to add to fix it. Maybe more flour?

these cookies have all the ingredients I love. Not sure what went wrong, but they had a bitter aftertaste. A bit disappointed. Oh well, they will be eaten irrespectively.

Hi Khadijah – the’re chewy. I’m sure you could bake them a little longer if you like your cookies more on the crunchy side.

These look wonderful! Are they a chewy or a crunchy cookie?
