These were good. They are more cake-like and not the chewy gooey kind. I mixed all of the ingredients and let them sit for a few minutes before putting any on the baking sheet. I added about 1 tsp vanilla and no milk as stated in step 5. They don't spread out much so it is better to make them large and flattened out a little. I thnk I may add chopped pecans next time I make them.
