    I was excited about this recipe until I read the reviews. Is too much work for me to end up with a bum deal...I don't like cooking much anyway. I am going to try using my regular recipe with better ingredients as suggested by I8N8N8 - but will check calorie content first. - 3/20/08

    This recipe was very dry and had no flavor. Did not like at all. - 3/15/07

    I tried this recipe and found it tasteless. It was too dry. I liked the calorie content as I could have two but was not worth it. Threw 1/2 of them away. - 3/10/07

    My apologies to the poster of this recipe, but these cookies are disgusting (even with chocolate chips added). They're almost tasteless. I know they're "diet" cookies, but 1/3 cup of sugar is not enough for this recipe, for starters. - 8/11/09
