  My kids are loving these as well as I am. This is the second time I have made them. They seemed a bit dry the first time, so I added 2 more TBL. of applesauce. Now they are perfect. - 9/19/09

  I added zucchini, and used half the sugar - next time I'll use less salt! - 8/16/12

  Used splenda, omitted salt and added extra 2 tbl applesauce. Good flavor, they are a bit dry but I didn't think it was a problem. Similar to various protein bars on the market. Hoping they freeze well so I can make a batch at the beginning of the week and then pull them out as needed. - 12/7/12

  The recipe as is -- I found it okay, but a little bland and very dry. I'll make them again but add more applesauce, as people have suggested. I think it still needs a kick--maybe more cinnamon or perhaps even chili. - 11/5/11

  I should have read reviews so I would have known to add more applesauce. Without it, the dough is so dry you can't even mix it, trust me. Well, I added an extra egg to moisten and it was fine. I also think there is a bit too much salt, may want to reduce to 3/4 tsp. Good taste! - 5/15/11

  Good! I substituted splenda blend for the sugar, and used 6 tbsp. of mini chips instead of the 1/2 cup of regular chips, and used reduced fat peanut butter. I also omitted the cinnamon as I don't like cinnamon and chocolate together. My kids loved them! - 1/30/10

  These are AWESOME! I've been trying to recreate a breakfast cookie I used to buy for years.....this recipe did it! I also increased the applesauce. These will be a staple in our house. - 1/29/11

  We love these! I do add a bit more applesauce as it is too dry otherwise. - 5/30/10

  I've made these twice so far--they're a huge hit. They make a great energy-filled snack for my teenage son before track practice, and I've even succeeded in getting my I-hate-breakfast husband to take one along in the morning.
  
  I also add a couple extra tablespoons of applesauce. - 5/1/10

  Very good although I had to add more applesauce to it to make it thinner. I also added zucchini and only half of the sugar for one amount. The recipe does not include the size of the balls so had to guess. - 6/12/16

  O.K.
  
  These sounded so good but came out so dry that they were almost inedible. Family wouldn't eat them and I refuse to waste calories on things that don't taste good. I threw the rest of the batch away. - 10/16/15

  Incredible!
  
  Adjusted this slightly, turned out a little more gooey than is probably intended, but I liked it!
  Dry ingredients didn't seem to be completely integrating with PB & applesauce, so added another spoonful of applesauce and splash of milk to moisten it a bit. White choc chips next time! - 5/31/15

  I saw the other reviews and decided to try cutting half a cup of flour, but the dough was still VERY dry. I sort of hoped some kind of applesauce magic would happen and they'd turn out normal after baking. But they turned out quite dry, though I only baked them for 7 minutes. Definitely add more AS! - 5/9/13

  Could you please confirm that this is for 1 cookie..the nutritional info. I am assuming yes. - 12/30/09

  Sounds good - I might try to make them with Splenda instead of sugar and leave out the chocolate chips (or substitute nuts) to lower the sugars. - 9/19/09
