I wanted to make these because of the simplicity of the recipe, but these turned out awful - too hard and way too buttery/sugary. I followed one of the reviewers suggestions and patted the mix into a pan to make bars since the cookies turned out so disastrously. That worked a little better, but now instead of being hard, they just crumble when you pick them up. And they still taste like a mouthful of brown sugar and butter.
