My friends loved these with and without the chocolate. They were shocked by how few ingredients and how easy they are.

Delicious even without the chocolate and nuts! The only thing is that they are a bit fragile. Maybe leaving them in longer will make them a bit sturdier. Easy to make and no flour needed.

These cookies are excellent and very easy to make. However, they take a little longer than 20 minutes to bake.

Me and my husband make a peanut butter cookie very similar to this but our recipe calls for 1 cup of sugar instead of 1/2 cups of sugar. Also we do not refrigerate it either, and bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. They are great!

It was easy! The cookie itself is not great, but with the chocolate it's good. I made the cookies twice as big and it's too much to eat. I'll make them the recommended size next time.

I thought they tasted kind of bland, even with the chocolate and nuts. I think the recipe is easy, but it might be worth it to make the peanut butter cookies the other way; with flour and such.
