  1. These were great, and had a really interesting texture due to the combination of flour and oats. A bit too sweet for my taste, so I'll tweak it a bit next time. If you don't have the macadamia nuts, feel free to omit them: I made half with nuts and half without, as my partner can't have nuts; upon tasting both, I couldn't honestly tell a difference. Thanks for the great recipe!
     
  2. I made these at the request of my DD who wanted a cookie we had never had before. I saw this one and decided to try it. I can't believe it hasn't been reviewed!!! These cookies are A_W_E_S_O_M_E!!!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

An event planner by profession, and a life-long foodie wanna-be who loves to make people happy by feeding them things that make their eyes light up. I'm an empty-nester who enjoys nothing more than cooking for family and friends. When those are not available, my dogs make EXCELLENT and enthusiastic Guinea pigs for testing new recipes. Not surprisingly, I've found that the German Shorthaired Pointers have much more discriminating palates than do the Goldens, who would eat anything -and I mean ANYTHING- that wasn't nailed down (and some things that were). They are all convinced that I'm a gourmet chef, however they're a pretty easy audience. FAVORITE QUOTE: "My theory is that all of Scottish cuisine is based on a dare." -- Mike Myers
