These are easy to make! and healthy for you too (small amount of butter & sugar), but still so very sweet and wholesome. The cookies are chewy and go great with any other add-ins (raisins, cranberries, chocolate chips, etc.) Courtesy of FoodNetwork.com

I actually did it without butter or sugar, and it turned out pretty well :)

This was bad, no taste, cook time is to long, so be careful of that. Honey is a good substitute for sugar but makes the cookie runny, might add more soda/flour. And flavor!

I liked these cookies because they aren't too sweet. I added chopped walnuts and a little cinnamon and vanilla. I did not get even two dozen cookies from the recipe. Note that they don't spread much when they bake.

I am baking at midnight here : ). I will have to say that i am not a baker but it took me 45 minutes to get ingredients together and mix and put into oven. I cannot wait to try. I added the 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg, and a handfull of bittersweet chocolate, and a couple of raisins. I know that no matter what this will be healthier than the ones i buy with questionable ingredients to preserve and keep cookies moist. I am using a toaster oven and just making a flat sheet because i am lazy. Just wondering how long you guys took to make. I cooked for 12 minutes. It came out like a oatmeal bread. I still like it a lot. But it was not like a chewy cookie. It does feel healthier as it is a loaded bread. Oh... i used all purpose flour... maybe thats why it doesn't taste like a cookie.
