Tastes okay, but the cookie turned out really thick and almost tough to chew. I guess they are okay if you like to dunk them in milk or something. I couldn't even pass them off to coworkers! I won't be making these again. - 8/16/09

I agree, they did come out thick and a bit dry. My father-in-law, who recently became diabetic, loved them because he could eat several of them. I will have to tinker some more. Thanks for trying them and letting me know what you thought.
