My 12 year old granddaughter saw this recipe and made them for the Lake County Fair. She won a best in show ribbon! These cookies are great!
Great recipe. It was mealy and dry but pressed together it does hold enough. After baking it does make a delicious, crumbly, melt-in-your-mouth cookie. My second time I added half an over ripe banana and ended up with a harder brittle cookie but tasty with a finish of banana nut.
These cookies are amazing, one of our favorites. My husband often asks me to make them and they have gotten loads of compliments from his co-workers. I didn't have any of the issues some of the reviewers had and followed the recipe exact.
Great taste, but when I added the flour to the mixture the consistency was mealy. I had to add about 2 tablespoons of milk to make it come together. Is there something missing in this recipe?
Nice.
I made theses cookies they were good, soft but dry any suggestions?less or more of something?
These tasted great! my family loved them, the only problem i ran into is i ran out of chopped pecans way before i ran out of the dough so i just made some without! :) definately would recommend these for anyone to make
These made a big hit at my house. Will definitely make again!
These cookies will change your life!!! They are great and are going into my permanent file.
Good cookie- my husband says next time add chocolate chips!
