My proof reading leaves room for improvement. You need to "combine" the flower, baking soda, and salt and you need to space the cookie dough 1-1/2" apart, not 1-1/21" apart. I tried to cut and past the recipe Sara sent and it would not work for me, so I copied it into the bog. Enjoy the cookies.

I usually make the cookies double the size they suggest...making 20 cookies instead of 40...at 2 points each. These cookies are SERIOUSLY good! They're really rich! I love them! ENJOY! OH...you do need the cooking spray on the cookie sheet. They kinda stick without it...I think because they have less butter/oil than normal cookies.

Roberta: Glad you liked the BBQ chicken.

My friend keeps supplying me with WW recipes. I'll keep passing on the great ones. The latest treasures are monster bars & muffins (made with whole wheat flour & flax). That reminds me, I used to always make a WW puppy chow, that we all really like. I haven't made that in a while. I'll look for that recipe too.

Good night!

So far I haven't been too successful in getting a comment sent. I will try again, the computer has passed a lot of time for me this winter with all the time I have spent in the house.
