Absolutely DELICIOUS. So simple to make. The "dough" is perfect to work with and the cookies come out as delicious as they smell. Perfect sweet snack if you are low-carbing. Thank you for this recipe!!! - 4/11/12

I was dissapointed because they smelled fantastic but the consistency and flavor are a bit lacking. - 12/19/10

A good recipe, and if you use a little less than 1/2 c of agave powder or 1/3 c agave syrup instead of splenda much healthier. - 11/13/14
