I made as directed except for the nuts as my DH unfortunately can't eat nuts. After the 5 minutes I went to flatten them and saw they had totally flattened and spread out into one another. So I just baked the additional 6 minutes. They weren't the best looking only because they spread out into one another but they were very good tasting. I'll definitely be making them again - thanks Sue!
