TWD: Granola Grabbers

DSC01190

Recipe chosen by: Michelle of Bad Girl Baking
Link to TWD group: Tuesdays With Dorie homepage

Good cookie, but I don't think I'd call it great. It's probably a great after school snack like Dorie describes in the preword, but I don't have a need for that. When I want a cookie, I want a chocolate chip or oatmeal cookie, ya know?

Maybe a little bit of spice would oomph it up a little more - although that could have been a result of the granola I chose?

I don't think I'll experiment with these either - it just calls for too many things that I don't regularly keep stocked in the pantry.

Interesting choice though, thanks Michelle! Head to Bad Girl Baking for the recipe and don't forget to check out the rest of the TWD crew to see how they liked this week's recipe.

(Sorry for the brief post, on vacation :)

I hope you're having a good vacation. I had made these before and almost skipped out, but I decided to try them again. The granola I chose really made a difference in the flavor. Sorry they weren't a big success for you. They do look great, though.

Sorry they were not to your liking. We added some spices.

You know, a little spice in these is a great idea.

I felt exactly the same way, good cookie but not great. I wish I had added some cinnamon, that might have helped.

Your cookies look great! I agree - good, but not great. I'm glad I made them though. Hope you are enjoying your vacation! Such dedication to be posting your entry during vacation!

Sorry they didn't work out better for you. Mine are a bit late this week, but I confess I'm curious...

Sorry you didn't love them. Maybe, try them again with chocolate. That's what I did, and they are a new favorite.
