Although I have a definite sweet tooth, I took the previous reviewer's tip & cut back a bit especially on the granulated sugar! Other than that, though, I followed the recipe right on down & they made a great addition to the cookie buffet we had for tenants in our mobile home park!

Made for PAC spring 2008. This is a nice recipe that is a little bit different. I made the recipe as posted, and found it much too sweet for my taste. Next time I would cut the sugars in half. With that said, my kids loved them!! The first batch didn't spread out all that much so I flattened the 2nd batch before cooking. They turned out just as described chewy and crunchy :) Thanks for posting.
