Sorry, but this recipe is AWFUL. The cookies taste like playdough. I think there must be an error. Is there too much flour? step 3 says to "Pour" the dough, but it is thick dough and it tastes like flour. Also, what do you do with the 5 "s" rolls? cut them up after they cook? I found the directions confusing.
