I made these exactly the way the recipe said. Gave them a little patriotic look. Yum ! So good !

Great texture . I made a half batch which made 18 cookies. Based on other comments I added 1/4 flour and 1/4 milk and got a very sticky dough. Dropped / not rolled with a small ice cream scoop. They spread very nicely to a crisp cookie. Baked ten minutes. Left on cookie sheet to cool. I also added 1/2 tsp dry lemon peel and lemon extract. My additions are based on a 1/2 recipe. Will make again.

Mine spread quite a bit so I’d advise spacing them out. I used parchment paper to line the pan, since it didn’t say if you had to prepare the pan. I don’t think it needs any- the dough is quite oily. I used a fork to flatten but they seemed to crumble so I just squeezed them in my palms and that worked better. I also substituted lemon extract for vanilla and used lemon crystals and dried cranberries to give more flavour. These were very good and really simple. I’ll be making these as spice cookies/ snickerdoodles next, as I have a whole jar of full fat mayonnaise to use up.

I followed the recipe exactly..They were very crumbly & when I pressed them down with a fork some crumbled apart. But they are very good cookies. My husband loved them. I took some to our daughter’s & her family..they loved them too! I’ll be making them again, probably tomorrow & try different flavors. I really don’t know how some say the dough is sticky. Hmmmm. 5 stars all the way.

I made these with 1c light brown sugar, instead of white. and they were delicious! crispy edges, yet soft on the inside. I, also, sprinkled them with a mix of cinnamon/sugar I already have in a container (for toast). I was a lottle worried they would have a Mayo flavor, but they didn’t at all. Both my son’s. and my husband loved them. I’ll be making again

Very good but changed a couple things: vegan Mayo, monk fruit sugar (1/1), lemon juice, tablespoon of water and 1 egg. Hope you enjoy!

I tried this recipe because there were no eggs in the house. It was much better than expected when I read on the recipe about all the mayo in it. A keeper for sure!
Jeffrey Hill
this was great. i made half the amount for 19 cookies. i also used half the amount of recommended sugar (i.e. quarter cup), tasted great and healthyish. no issues with the dough, balled up nicely. i topped each cookie with 1 whole nut, and also used lemon extract although it didnt taste too lemony. it was a bit soft/crumbly coming out of the oven, which was tasty, but after cooling it set a bit more and it was tasty too.

They were awesome! I let them sit out to cool and went to bed. When I got up they were over 1/2 gone.
Melanie Winters
Surprisingly good. Easy to make so it doesn’t take up a whole day in the kitchen. Clean up easy, too.

Easy Peasy Delicious Cookies!!
Daniel Mcfarland
They are not real good. They have a sour flavor, and does not taste good.
Matthew English
I made these cookies but with one change. Instead of using vanilla extract, I used almond extract. They are melt-in-your-mouth amazing!!!
Noah Farley
Very good. Will make again.
Gary Collins
awesome esp when allergy to eggs
Christopher Daniels
My family loved them! They are super easy to make and pair really well with milk or ice cream! Definitely a win!
Derek Grant
It really couldn’t get any easier! I made them just like the recipe called for, but I make them as drop cookies. They flattened out nicely while baking. Super easy recipe to use as jumpstart for other cookies. Thanks so much for posting!
Emily Duffy
They was so easy to make and tasted awesome. Ty for sharing it

I had a craving for homemade cookies but did not have eggs or enough butter. I found this recipe and decided to give it a try. I don’t like really sweet cookies so I used half white and half brown sugar and I used baking powder instead of baking soda. I also used a generic mayonnaise that has a milder flavor than some others. These cookies don’t really flatten as they bake so pressing them flat is crucial for crispy cookies. This is a basic sugar cookie recipe that lends itself to additions. I have experimented, sometimes adding 1 cup of chocolate chips and nuts, sometimes adding 1 cup of oatmeal and raisins. Very quick and so easy to whip up a batch. Thanks!

Taste amazing. Recipe was so easy and quick to make. Make a double batch, got 46 cookies. I was surprised how big they got. Will definitely make them again.
