    I made a batch of these and threw out all the cookies. They just had no taste whatsoever and the texture was weird. I even tried icing them to see if that would help but it did not. Do not waste your time or money. Lesson learned-Taste is more important than WW points when it comes to cookies. - 12/15/10
