Delicious! I don't have whole wheat pastry flour, so I used half white, half reg. whole wheat. Also subbed wheat germ for oat bran. I accidentally used only 4 tbsp. butter, but they still turned out well. I don't have turbinado sugar, so I used brown. These would be great with chopped nuts added in. - 8/21/15
