I had to make these twice to get them where I wanted them. The first time I used twice the amount of milk and it was still so dry and crumbly, it was impossible to shape into cookies. I kept adding more peanut butter until they would stay together. The end result was a hard to handle dough, a somewhat dry and crumbly cookie with almost too much peanut butter flavor. The second time I made them, I went with my cookie making instincts and mixed them like so: Combined by hand the peanut butter (not melted or warmed), brown sugar, 1/3 cup of rice milk, baking powder and salt and whisked together until smooth. Then stirred in oats, then flour, then add 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. I used a cookie scoop (Tbl size), flattened each one a bit with a cookie stamp and got about 30 cookies out of batch. They took 9 minutes in my oven. My Vegan daughter, nephew and brother really enjoyed them. Thanks for posting the recipe...it gave me a jump start in Vegan cookie baking.

Changes I made to the recipe were as follows: I used 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup white sugar because that is all I had. I also used quick oats instead of old fashioned oats. In order to get a doughy consistancy, I had to use about 1/2 cup of soymilk. this may be due to the quick oats, I don't know, but it seemed that adding the milk after heating the pb just made the pb hard again instead of it being a "milky consistency". So, I'm not sure how that all worked out. Overall, I think they are a nice cookie, although pretty bland in flavor. I may try them again with a few more adjustments.
