Mine didn't come out as well as expected. They taste very good but the texture is somewhere between a bad cookie and a bad cake. Kind of flat, spongy, and greasy instead of what a great cookie should me. I'm sure it was because I didn't have butter so I substituted margarine. Now I know, butter is a must when baking! I have to say the flavor combination is perfect in this recipe though. You hit the cookie on the head, Veronica: margarine would create a very poorly-textured cookie--most margarine brands contain less fat compared to butter--the rest of margarine is water and other "fun" additives, which wreaks havoc on cookie recipes. Stick with butter and all should be well! I hope your next batch is spot-on! Kim@KAF
