    These were so yummy! Took them to a church potluck and the kids (and adults) couldn't keep there hands off of them. The only modification I made was reducing the flour by 1/2 cup and adding 1/2 cup of oat flour. I'll keep making these for sure! - 11/10/09

    Looooooooooove these cookies. I used 3 T of smart balance butter + 1/4 c of vegetable shortening instead of butter, 3/4 c of sugar instead of honey, white flour (all I had) instead of wheat, and only 1/3 c of chopped walnuts. Cakelike, and delicious. - 9/23/09

    I thought this was a fantastic recipe and holds closer to my "from scratch" cooking/baking than some other pumpkin spice cookie recipes! Love the honey instead of sugar and wheat instead of white flour as well! *Almost* healthy cookies. :) - 9/10/10

    I made these today and they were pretty good. I left out the walnuts and added extra pumpkin. They turned out moist and chocolaty. - 9/22/09

    My husband didn't like pumpkin until he met me, and I think this was his favorite pumpkin recipe so far! He RAVED about them, and I loved them, too. My friend described them like little muffin cookies. - 1/30/08
