  1. Yes, these cookies are really good, however, I have revised mine a bit so my family will get some nutrition as well as it being yummy, these seem to add more flavor:<br/><br/>I add cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, bran, raisins, organic choco chips, and raw crushed almonds.<br/>(I just guess at the additions and they always turn out well)
     
  2. Excellent cookies! I found my recipe in the Best of Bridge series. Can't go wrong with this one
     
  3. Crispy and delish! Nex time I might add about 1/2 cup more oatmeal. Oh, by the way, I chilled the dough overnight. made for I reviewed tag game.
     
  4. I trust Gerry 999's tastebuds, so I had to give these a whirl. For a recipe having few ingredients, these sure were good. Like LifeIsGood, mine flattened and spread too, but they still maintained a very good cookie shape. I agree with Gerry--you certainly can't eat just one. I used two bowls just to make sure all dry ingredients were well mixed--yielded 32 cookies. Thanks, Az G!
     
  5. YES! Needed a special treat for after school last week - made for high fives all around. So easy to make. These cookies for me were definetley 'you just can't eat one' kind of cookie. They baked up into well shaped cookies tasting as good as they looked. That Mona's Mother's best friend sure knew what makes for a great cookies! Made for AUZ/NZ Swap.

<p>Over the years I have developed a love of cooking and baking. This is a very good thing since I have intolerances to most foods. If I don't cook it, I often regret eatting it. <br /><br />I also enjoy reading, crafts, and have a borderline serious addiction to Rock Band <br /><br /><br />November 2008 <br /><br /><a href=http://s224.photobucket.com/albums/dd235/MidwestMaven/?action=view?t=cookieswapparticip.jpg target=_blank><br /><br /><img src=http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg alt= /></a> <br /><br />December 2008 <br /><br /><img src=http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd235/MidwestMaven/cookieswapparticip.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/AMpageSticker.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/hg-participation.gif border=0 alt=Hidden-Gems-Event-08 /> <img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/holidaybadge.gif border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br />January 2009 <br /><br /><img src=http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/i-connected-125.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/KBparticipation.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br />February 2009 <br /><br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picbtGrUW-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><a href=http://s424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Food/?action=view?t=CardamomBanner.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Food/CardamomBanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br />March 2009 <br /><br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pictSF7ey-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><a href=http://s424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Food/?action=view?t=ParsleyBanner.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Food/ParsleyBanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br /><a href=http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a254/Sharon123/?action=view?t=parsleybanner.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a254/Sharon123/parsleybanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br /><img src=http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a24/ohohkatie/MARCHTAG1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br />April 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pick0GuXD-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br />May 2009 <br /><br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pick0GuXD-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/GGtiedyesmall.gif alt= /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><br />June 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picwJT0Wr-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br />December 2009</p> <p><a href=http://s224.photobucket.com/albums/dd235/MidwestMaven/?action=view&amp;current=09holidayparticipationbanner.jpg target=_blank><img style=border: 0px; src=http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd235/MidwestMaven/09holidayparticipationbanner.jpg alt=Photobucket /><br /><br /></a><a href=http://www.amazingcounter.com><img src=http://cb.amazingcounters.com/counter.php?i=2507267&amp;c=7522114 border=0 alt=Hit Counters /></a></p>
