I really enjoyed the spice flavor. It was a nice Fall cookie. The texture was a little spongier than I like in a cookie. It was a little cake-like. But, it was moist and yummy. They are definitely not sweet like a good old fashioned Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie, but they had great flavor. If you want a little more sweetness you could use 1/2 unsweetened applesauce and 1/2 sweetened applesauce, or add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. Hmmm, I'm thinking these would be good with a cup of hot cider.
