This recipe is awesome! I did make a couple of changes though... I used coconut milk instead of oil, used sprouted whole wheat flour, added a tsp of cinnamon, used macadamia nuts instead of pecans, doubled the salt (pink) and used only a half cup of each sugar....and then sprinkled a touch of celtic grey salt on top when I baked them. WOW!
