    I just read this page of reviews, and no one mentioned the 30 MINUTE cooking time for a one inch delicate cookie ball? No one had any problems with this? cuz Mine were burnt the Heck up! Nine Minutes is good. too dry for me and tasteless. Walnuts give a better flavor.
    One batch I mixed Pecans walnuts and almonds to equal two cups. they were ok, but nothing beat the taste test, and yes, I had one with strangers. Walnut won out.

I think I must have used more pecans because they were more pecanny than I expected But they were still great cookies and I am going to make them again and again as they are a favorite of our family and are great cookies
