Bake in the top half of preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove cookies from sheets; cool on wire racks. Makes 30 cookies. |

The recipe has the right combination of ingredients for a great tasting cookie. However being in warm & humid climate, its easier to work with the cookie by refrigerating the dough for at least 30 mins otherwise it is very sticky.

Great recipe! Easy to make and delicous. My husband is a diabetic so I subtituted some brown sugar blend for the regular brown sugar. Didn't change the taste at all.

There is too much Butter in the cookies! I think that half the amount would be sufficient.
