We liked the blend of sweet and salty and the mix of textures. I was not successful, however, in getting them to hold together. Tried the traditional drop cookie as suggested, and also pressed some into bars using a lined 8x8 pan. Neither worked. Ended up using much of it as a crumbled topping on yogurt or ice cream.
Great cookie and so easy. Followed the recipe as is....turned out GREAT! Everyone loved them....recipe made it to the book!!
Great treat! I used 1 cup of sugar and it was perfect for our tastes. I refrigerated for about an hour, and they were ready to go!
