     I substituted Splenda Brown Sugar and Egg Beaters but didn't change anything else. They were wonderful. - 12/11/12

     Sounds good, I plan to try these. Those of you with negative comments, please realize if a person is craving sweets, this is far better than many other choices. Sometimes we are also cooking for other family members who are not dieting, and all can share the same "healthier" treats! - 3/25/13

     Its junk. I love using SparkPeople, but I have yet to understand why they allow the posting of junk recipes. There's nothing clean about brown sugar or flour. Multi-grain does not alway = healthy. It must be whole grain. And really, 100 calories for 1 unfilling cookie. Think for yourself! - 3/25/13

     I like the idea of using whole grains, but not shortening.

    "Margarine, vegetable shortening and most commercial baked goods contain these artificially hardened fats and, along with them, TFAs. TFAs are just as bad if not worse for the heart and arteries than saturated fats. - Dr.Weil - 12/18/12

    I'm glad you like them! :) Thank YOU!

     These were easy to make & tasty - great for times I need a small treat. For those saying that SP should be ashamed to allow junk & "not clean" recipes to be posted, try not reading recipes with "Cookie" in the title. It should save some frustration. - 12/11/13

     These are outstanding! The calorie count is a bit high per cookie -I'd like to figure a way to reduce the calorie count - but the flavor is wonderful and they're "substantial" -- excellent! - 1/10/13

     I LOVE these! I used agave instead of maple syrup and I added 1/4 cup of ground flax seeds. Also, had to substitute shortening for marjorine. Delicious! Like a variation on an oatmeal scotchie.

     These sound terrific, could I use muesli instead of the cereal and butter as I have never seen shortening for sale in Australia. - 12/11/12

     Made these for hubby before he went on the road. Like fixing him a lot of snacks when he is on the road for good choices. He bought a nice big cooler and has a small refig. in is Sleeper. So he is well stock for the road. He eats his main meals at the truck stops when is stops for the night. - 10/27/19

     Freezing them and eating as a hard, frozen treat, makes them last longer. - 12/31/18

  • SUSANBEAMON
     The first time I made these, I found the maple flavor too much for me, so if I make then again, I will cut the maple down some. - 12/8/18
