    I just made this recipe and they are really good. I added a couple of tablespoons of peanut butter and only had quick cooking oats and they came out great!! Kids loved them. - 2/17/14

    I made this recipe but used an ice cream scoop rather than a rounded spoonful, which made 15 large cookies. Only had to bake them for 15 minutes, rather than recommended 18. Cookies got high marks from my family, next time will double recipe. - 8/30/09
