      I've just made these. Great tasting cookies and easy to make. I think I over-heaped my teaspoon though so I got 24 huge cookies rather than 40 smaller ones! :-)

        Heh, I made huge one with some of the mix. They're nice too as the bigger ones stay chewy in the middle.

      They look yummy! Anything oaty goes down well here and we're massive fans of flapjacks. I have a few oaty biscuit recipes and they seem to disappear rather quickly, they always taste really comforting.
