  1. Mae REVIEW:

    Really good cookies. Made as recipe is written. After making dough I placed it in the fridge for an hour. So much easier to roll. It's a very moist dough. Perfect flavors for fall.

  2. JR REVIEW:

    I made this for my diabetic in-laws, and they absolutely loved them. I substituted the 3/4 cup of sugar for agave nectar, and skipped rolling it in sugar and cinnamon. I put the cinnamon in the dough instead. They were so moist and good. Didn't taste sugar-free at all! By far the best sugar free desert I ever made.

  3. true blue 52 REVIEW:

    I got way more than 24 cookies. Very good recipe though. Good molasses flavor.

  4. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    Very Good--I added another 1 1/2 cups of Oats. In total, 3 cups. (That's what a recipe with brown sugar would require too) This recipe actually make 65 cookies!! Very good, especially if you want a healthier choice!
