    totally fabulous! I made a few changes: 1 cup sugar only; whole wheat flour; 1 cup raisins added. I made them larger, so they were a little 'cakier'. Thanks so much for sharing these! - 10/7/10

    These are amazing!! I used 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips and used 1/2 oat flour and 1/2 regular flour. I also made them a bit bigger but they were still very reasonable in calories. Thanks for the great recipe!!!! - 1/27/10

    Raisins work as a good chip substitute as well. 15 min exactly was perfect (just browning on the bottom). My roommate stole 4 before I could get them off the pan. Definite win! - 12/20/09

    I used a sugar substitute, cutting the calories by 1/3 and I used carob instead of chocolate chips (didn't figure calories on this yet). YUUUMMMMYYYYY!!!
    Thank you for this recipe. - 11/4/09
