We really enjoyed these cookies ~ loved the flavor and how easy they were to make. I made them gluten free and made only half the recipe, using sorghum flour and almond flour, gluten-free oats, and I used my favorite pecans. Will definitely add these to the cookie cookbook for future use! Great cookies. Made for MAY PHOTO FORUM, 'FARM COOKIN'

My mom makes these every year around the holidays. She has a few names for them, kitchen sink cookies (because they have everything but the kitchen sink in them), and best cookies ever. She just might be right on both accounts, these are awesome!
