We tagged this for PRMR game because it sounded yummy and simple to make. I quartered the amount however, as I was a bit leary from previous reviews. I used 1.5x the flour called for hoping this would give it some density. Unfortunately it fell as soon as I removed it from the oven and the taste was just 'okay'. As one reviewer stated, this recipe has potential. Maybe as a cookie recipe? Sorry WI, we really wanted this to work. -
This also did not work out for me. It also rose and fell. The edges were hard and over cooked and the center was chewy. I would guess that less butter is needed with natural PB and perhaps a bit less sugar. This has potential and hopefully I can get some time to play with it. -
it rose and then fell and turned out a mess! i followed the directions exactly... maybe it was just me.

I am a Christian wife and mother of 3 kids. Since my DH's high cholesterol, we've been eating better. I never used to like cooking. Since eating better, I've liked learning and preparing new recipes. My kids haven't reconciled themselves to the new eating yet. I grind my own grain and make all my own breads.?Working 2 hours a day in the local high school lunch room.??I am homeschooling my high schooler.? ?Also found out 1 child has multiple food allergies (wheat, dairy, tomato, chocolate, etc) and another is gluten sensitive. So, we just started (July 09) eating gluten and dairy free. I've been busy with getting our house market ready, even though it's not the best time for that.?
