Thank you Florida Ray, I think I have found my new favorite cookie recipe! My second batch is still in the oven but I couldn't wait to say how good these are. Such an easy recipe with so few ingredients, yet so yummy. I made one tiny change, I put vanilla in everything so I substituted a tsp of water for a tsp of vanilla. Yum!
Amazingly addictive. Very simple taste but the texture is what gets you!
Five stars. Give these cookies a try. You will be glad you did. I crushed the nougat in a plastic bag with a wooden mallet. My second batch of cookies, substituted 1 teaspoon of water with vanilla as the previous reviewer tried. Great good both ways!
Didn't care for these much-seems to be missing something maybe some salt/vanilla would do the trick. The nougat was interesting easy enough to make but didn't really add anything to the cookie itself except for a simple crunchy-sugary taste.
Sooo yummy. these are my new favorite cookies! they are super easy to make and are delicious. I substituted vanilla extract for the water which added a lot of flavor- i think theyd be rather dull without it. Also used vegan butter (earth balance) and it still turned out great! thanks for the recipe!
My cookies did not turn out how I had expected at all. It could have been that in making the nougat I waited a tad bit too long which makes all the difference in the world! A tip to others: the moment all the sugar is carmelized and a light brown color; pour it immediently! It will taste how nougat should (mine tasted burnt as I waited too long). Also some reviews say to add more vanilla for better taste but too much will make it taste odd so watch out:). Other than that the cookie was ok.
The batter ended up really dry so I added a splash of milk and then it was moldable into the roll. I had a little fun and added twice the nougat and the second batch I made was 1 cup sugar and 1 square unsweetened bakers chocolate made for a chocolatey-caramel flavour. The actual cookie is very much like a biscuit/cookie hybrid. My roommate claimed that " I am a cookie genius"
These didn't have a lot of flavor but were moist and sugary.
Had a bad day and wanted cookies. These struck my fancy because they call for a cathartic smashing of nougat. Followed the recipe almost exactly (just added salt). Came out great; everyone loved them.
