I loved the combination of the raisins, chocolate, and nuts. An the ingredients in the granola made it delicious so I would like them if someone served them to me with something as I see here. But now I have next week's upside-down recipe for guests this weekend and doing The Bostini, my fav, and the red velvet rose that I haven't tried yet. What am I doing here at 1:15 a.m. I' can tell you - I am truly addicted. I say I am not going to look at anything here tonight, and here I am chatting away. I am already three weeks late putting in weekly logs, which means three weeks no paycheck. Now that is truly addiction. But don't stop chatting. I guess I would rather be in the poor house than be without my blog - or would it be the food? I would say both if I were seriously queried...Night Night.xxxxxxxxAlpha Baker Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11362064527893799872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-349080038710692950.post-25361042404023157192015-03-23T18:51:11.744-07:002015-03-23T18:51:11.744-07:00Looks delicious!!

I think "luxury" refers to both the size and the cake-like texture (and the muscovado sugar).

I still love them. Yes Marie, I was surprised that the lady picked up on the cookie difference. It was nice. Maybe she is a baker herself.Alpha Baker Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11362064527893799872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-349080038710692950.post-15834471689343919102015-03-23T10:14:01.264-07:002015-03-23T10:14:01.264-07:00Interesting - they really do look like two differe...Interesting - they really do look like two different cookies.

I guess mine were the only ones that weren't soft at all. Like you, I used Bob's Red Mill oats but they were "extra thcik". Since I didn't stick to the recipe using all maple syrup, I'm pretty sure this made the difference in texture. I liked the flavor so whatever the texture would be fine with me. By the way, your canisters are so cute! Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04092314449327044507noreply@blogger.com
