These are DELICIOUS and I feel healthy when I eat them!! I use some whole wheat flour and add extra nuts and craisins. So good!
8/31/2011 12:22:31 PM Report AbuseI'm not sure why because I followed the directions exactly (something I never do) and they turned out TOO SWEET! I will try them again because other than the sugar, they were fantastic!!! OMG! just as I'm about to hit the submit button for this comment I looked at the recipe and sure enough....I added too much sugar....I have read peoples comments on so many other recipes and can never understand how they mess up a recipe but now I know. I am one of those people.
