I dropped a small dollop of dark chocolate ganash (melted) on each cookie.....Delicious!

I made these today. They were the most easiest cookies with the littlest of ingredients. They were crisp and tasty!! Just sweet enough and my granddaughter loved them. I feel that these are low in calories and sugar for those watching their weight and sugar intake. I’ll be making these often.

Gluten-free variation: omit wheat flour and use 2 tablespoons gluten-free oat flour.

I wanted a quick, simple cookie recipe to serve a friend who was dropping by for tea in an hour. The cookies were cooling off when she arrived and were a perfect delicate cookie to accompany tea. I made them with half-salted butter but otherwise followed the recipe exactly as written, however I took them out after only 10 minutes.
These are not your after-school snack cookies, but are perfect for when you want something delicate and elegant.

Just made these. They were yummy! Great for when you want to throw something together last minute.
Here's what I changed:
1/8 teaspoon salt (although I think others used salted butter which caused the problem)
1/4 teaspoon almond extract and 3/4 teaspoon vanilla
Brown sugar versus white
Doubled the recipe and still wasn't that much, but perfect for what I needed.
Used tablespoon sized balls (made 12 cookies total)
Drizzled melted chocolate on top.
May try peppermint for almond next time.
Enjoy

Good part - easy to make and very quick.
Bad part - The cookies were a little dissapointing. I trippled the recipe and used a little more vanilla. However the yield could barely handle 20 people. For flavor, the cookies were a little salty at best. I made whipped cream, and that helped extend the batch and cut the salt, but I needed a quick recipe that could cover ~40 people and the whipped cream added another 30min onto the cooking.

These little cookies were ok, but the yield is way off. I was very conservative with each teaspoon, and still could only stretch a total of 12 cookies out of the batch. I used dark brown sugar, which really boosted the caramel flavor. Next time I'll double the batch and perhaps add a spice such as cardamom or cinnamon for a kick.

cbrandt, I always have to make more than the recipes are for. You just have to multiply.

This is a nice little cookie although I agree about adding some cinnamon. What I am finding most frustrating, however, are the tiny recipes. So many of the recent cookie recipes are for maybe 2 dozen cookies. If I want to make these to take to work, I have to calculate more than one batch. I would like to see some recipes that make more cookies and extras could be frozen. These recipes are too impractical.

Just tried this recipe. I liked how quick and simple it was The cookies turned out quite nice. I might add just slightly less salt next time. Also, I will space them further apart next time, they did spread quite a bit. Overall nice recipe.

Just made these cookies... very salty! I will probably make them again, but use half the salt and perhaps add some cinnamon and use brown sugar instead of white.

Honestly I do not get all these rave reviews? I am a very experienced baker and cook but these mystified me. They were so small I could not even get 20 cookies from the recipe for starters, then the resulting cookie was dry and pretty much tasteless except for the salty taste! Yes, I followed the recipe exactly. Gosh what a dissappointment and a waste of ingredients. This is just my opinion of course but I am entitled to same.

These are the most delicious cookies I have ever made considering how fast and easy it was. I doubled the recipe and used 2 packets of maple and cinnamon oatmeal cereal instead of the rolled oats. FULL of Flavor!

0lde-Mumsy, did you use brown sugar for the toffee flavor? You also
added cinnamon so you did adapt the original recipe for more flavor..
I still maintain that the or oginal recipe is too bland and since I live at
5,000 feet I have to add a bit of flour to most recipes. Mykele

hmmm. I can't decide. I love crisp cookies. I'm a huge fan of Tate's chocolate chip cookies. .. I was afraid they would be boring, so I added about 1/2 a cup of chocolate chips. I thought I was dropping the dough too small (literally about a teaspoon size) but they cooked out to a normal size.
Overall, they taste okay (with chocolate chips) and were SUPER quick, fast and easy to prepare.

a recipe like this is often very misleading...the vanilla gives lots of flavor and you can always add finely chopped nuts and raisins...they stay lacy and are DELICIOUS!!

Mykele, they have so little flour because they are more like lace cookies--very crisp and toffee-like. I make a version of these all the time (with cinnamon, too) and they disappear quickly. Maybe you should try them first before declaring them flavor-free.

Frankly, just seeing the recipe amounts deters me from even
ten minutes to make them.....so little flour, etc. adds up to no real
substance. Probably great for a person on a diet. No flavor.........

My mom and I used to make these but we would put melted chocolate or frosting in between two, making a cookie sandwich. The cookie on it's own is a little weak.

If you are going to make this recipe I would say double it. It does make two dozen but there is very little substance to each cookie. I found them a little boring and won't make them again, but I agree with Foodie72 - they would be good to have on hand if dieting.
