Good. Just make sure to use wooden spoon when stirring.
SO easy, and yummy 🙂
Started out making a 1/2 batch to be sure we would like these. They are awesome and have decided to keep making batches as a staple and store in the fridge. Loved that it had no flour, just great sesame and oatmeal. They would make a wonderful dessert along with some vanilla greek yogurt with a little cinnamon on top.
This recipe has few ingredients, it is very easy to make and tastes absolutely awesome! Great recipe.
I made these yesterday, a pretty good treat. Yes I will make them again.
I’ve made these several times. They’re really good and I always halve the sugar. For variety I’ve tried adding almond slivers, coarsely chopped nuts and chopped cranberries. So far all have turned out good. Better than store bought definitely but you’ve got to tweak it to your liking. To SueB, if you reduce the sugar by too much it can get crumbly coz sugar is the binding agent here. What I did was to spread the dough out thinner and it became crispier. But because I halved the sugar, I replaced 2 tbps of the oats with 2 tbps of corn flour to help bind the cookie. Mine have always turned out all right. To those who think this is not healthy because there is too much butter, actually, from what I’ve read, butter is a lot healthier than margarine and spreads that are mostly made from hydrogenated oils. This recipe baked with added fruits and served with a glass of milk will be a very nutritious breakfast or snack for anyone young or old.
I love the store bought seasme snaps and was excited to try these even though they are not exactly the same. (the store ones do not have oatmeal) They tasted really great but I would not compare them to the store bought ones. These ones had a little too much of the brown sugar taste. I wonder if it would make a difference if I used half brown and half white sugar. All in all, these were good, however, I would not call them nutritious seeing how much sugar and butter they have in them. I would make them again.
These are delish! They taste a lot like the caramel corn that I make at Christmas, but with the added flavour of toasted sesame seeds. Followed the recipe to a tee, baked for 9 minutes and they turned out great!
Simple, fast and tasty. I used muscovado sugar instead of brown sugar but only 3/4 cup, and they still were very sweet.
these tasted great the 1st and 2nd day. After that, they tasted like old butter blobs with sesame attached. I need to tweak this recipe, but unsure how and at the moment I am not inspired. It needs to be less buttery and more sesame.
Wrong name for this cookie! Sesame crumbles is mostly what I got! These are easy to make. They taste great! The cookies on the outside edges of the pan were somewhat crisp, but in the middle, they crumbled. I’ll make them again if I can find a way to get the panful to all be crispy!
Perfect they were easy to make. Everyone loved them. Cheaper then the store bought ones and tastes better.
This was good. My husband loved them because they weren’t too sweet. I thought 3/4 c. sesame seeds seemed like way too much so I only used 1/4 c. Next time I might not even use that much.
