Reviews
Not bad. Had to lower oven temp to 350. Still crunchy 🙁
I found these to be really dry. I had to add a 1/2 cup of water, and then when I baked them, they had the consistency of bisquick biscuits. I think the recipe left out brown sugar.
A real winner-tastes like Subway’s cookies, although my cooking time was only 6 to 8 minutes in a gas oven. They would’ve been black if I cooked them the recommended amount of time.
I found these cookies to be extremely disappointing. The texture was dry and the cookies rather tasteless. I even tried adding coconut and other ingredients to liven them up a bit, but nothing seemed to help.
Very tasty cookies. Would not hesitate to give as a gift.
