This recipe turned out great! I added 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp baking soda to recipe. I used 1c of brown sugar instead of 3/4. I was able to get 24 cookies because I didn;t want them to small. The first batch did not flatten so the last batch I flatted with a wet spoon and it turned out perfect...

Mine didn't flatten out either, stayed big & round. I'll fork em next time, and use less flour to get a moister cookie. Tastes good though! BAKING TIP - to get 48 cookies, divide dough into 4 quarters, put 1 quarter on a paper plate, then divide that up into 4 wedges & make 3 cookies out of each one - 4/13/13

Good, but I messed up a bit. The first batch was perfect - 10 minutes on my air-bake sheet on the middle rack.
The rest, I tried to rush -- I didn't use airbake sheets, and I had one on the lower rack. They got burned quickly. I think you need to just use the middle rack, they burn easily. - 12/2/12

I rolled dough into a Saran-Wrapped roll and froze the two rolls. I could, then, slice and bake them at my convenience. I also cut back on the brown sugar a tad and used candied ginger chopped extremely fine. Blackstrap mollasses provided more nutrients and VERY good flavors!! Terrific cookies. - 7/22/12

I was a little short on the molasses and my batter was quite dry so I didn't roll it in the sugar and cinnamon at the end, but my guests really liked the taste. I only got 36 cookies instead of 45 so my nutritional count was off a bit. I am buying more molasses 2nd try! I liked the cookie size. - 3/11/12

I followed the directions to a tee, but the results looked nothing like the picture provided, and tasted like the kind of "health cookie" a child would make a face at (probably all that ww flour). The cookies were small, round, and dense, and tasted like molasses. I was the only one who'd eat them. - 12/8/11
