     These were very good and did taste a lot like a brownie. I made some adjustments and replaced the butter with 1/4 cup applesauce and used part Splenda and part sugar. To get the 48 cookies they are pretty small but by making these changes I can make 36 for a few less calories each! - 7/8/09

     SOO good! I used a melon-baller size scoop and it cut the calorie count in half - that way I could have twice as many and not feel bad! I also put parchment paper on the cookie sheet to help with taking the cookies off the sheets. - 5/23/09

     The cookies were great, but you can't leave them to chill longer than 1 hour. I put them in the fridge before making and eating dinner and the dough was hard and crumbly when I took it out. I was able to press the crumbles together, but I could see by the center how it really should have been. - 12/7/07

     First, the ice cream scoop got stuck in the very thick batter, second, I learned that these have to be cooked on a greased surface, not a silicone one. They also required 12 min. of baking. Taste and consistency were very good. - 6/28/09

     I won a cookies contest with these - absolutely to die for! - 1/2/09
  • LLEEINIA
     Yes, these are very good but I won't be making them again unless someone takes them out of the house as soon as they come out of the oven! I can't eat just one. - 12/22/08

     I just baked these cookies today and I'm just amazed!!! They are little bites of heaven! I'm thinking of adding chopped walnuts to the recipe next time. Awesome recipe! - 12/10/07

     These cookies are DELICIOUS! Extremely chocolatey. I made each cookie about 1 1/2 teaspoon size which turned out really well. - 1/11/09

     These cookies are just wonderful, everyone loves them. You can also put a couple of tablespoons of peanut better. They are great that way also. Nuts are also good in them, just not to many. - 4/2/08

     This recipe is so good! I did chill the dough for more than 1 hr and it was crumbly and the ice cream scoop was too big (it took 20 min to cook 1 batch) so I used a teaspoon and rolled the dough into small 1" balls. It made about 60 or 70 cookies, so even fewer calories per cookie! - 12/19/07

     I make them smaller and use dark chocolate premium cocoa. Wonderful and I am a chocoloholic! - 6/30/09
  • SHANIMCK
     Talk about amazing taste! I actually rolled these out to 1/4" or less thickness and pretended they were sugar cookies. They came out great (cook a little less time) and taste JUST like the most chocolate brownies you've ever had. - 12/10/07
  • DAWNAM2
     Mmmm...made these this am and forgot to chill the dough....they still turned out fantastic! - 3/30/09
  • ROXIMAPRIME
     Wonderful! I definitely won't make these often for my own home, but they are a huge hit wherever I bring them! Awesome! - 12/31/08
  • EDWARDS928
     These are wonderful cookies! I love them and will be making this in the future. - 6/14/07

     These were so easy to make. They can be addictive. So make them to share and not have any leftovers. - 6/6/09
  • WOLF1964
     These are AWESOME!!!! I see a few are sorta bashing them. I say go ahead and make them and enjoy them. Just have to remember that moderation is the key... - 12/10/08
  • MAINEROCKS
     Thought these were great but my husband said they were "kind of boring". I disagree :-) I tried the roll into a ball method that someone suggested and it worked well, but took a bit longer to cook even in small balls. I smooshed them a bit with the spatula when they came out of the oven. Yum! - 2/5/09

     These are awesome! I also added a TBSP of espresso to give them a little kick - and YUM! - 12/15/07
  • TECHCATZ
     OMG!!! These are TOO good! I too, made them smaller so they would be fewer calories, but unfortunately, ate more than one! But it was SO worth it!! I used parchment paper and they slid off quite nicely. I'm bringing them to a tailgate tonight and I bet they don't last very long :) - 5/29/08
  • PCOLVIN

  • CZECHCONNIE
     WOW! These are some of the best cookies I've ever made! They really do taste like brownies, only so much better than any box mix. My kids went crazy over them, and I contained myself to having only three! - 7/25/07
