    I loved this. To cut calories, I reduced the sugar to about a quarter of a cup, and sliced up a banana into the oatmeal to add some flavour. :] - 10/19/08

    For a diabetic I think it is way to much surgar even if we can have a small amount. - 3/20/09

    I absolutely love No bake cookies, however I just found out I am diabetic. I don't think these would be good for me! - 2/22/09

    ooh my goodness! These are DELICIOUS~ I didn't have cocoa powder, so I didn't even put it in there, and they came out deliciously! I love them, at first I thought a tsp serving is really small, but the oats make it very satisfying :D - 11/20/08

    I have a question. The chart to the right says a serving has 10.7 calories, the chart underneath says 80.7 calories. I am guessing the 80.7 is correct? - 10/26/08

    yes... the other one is the correct one.
    I actually tried to put a note in the directions so that everyone could know the right amounts.
    Sorry for the confusion.

    I love anything that's no bake. But I think I would reduce the sugar to 1/8/less. There's no way I would use Splenda. I do not trust any artificial sugar. - 5/11/10

    Very good... substituted 1/4 cup brown sugar for the cocoa and added a li'l bit of hershey's syrup. husband (who definitely doesn't need to diet and doesn't like diet food) liked 'em too! =) - 7/26/09

    Looks good, except WAY too much sugar for many of us...looking forward to Splenda version.

    These are good, but I only got 36 so the cookies must be really small. The next time I make them I am going to reduce the oats. Mine were dry and I think this will help with it. Good overall recipe. - 10/25/08

    Can these be made with splenda? - 10/8/08
