I made these for valentines day. I misread the directions and didn't separate the wet ingredients and baked both cookies and bars in the oven at the same time. There were about 12 cookies and 12 bars. I think I'll try to make them again, but don't write this review yet another time. :(

I agree, but I ricin' baked cookies instead of puffy little disk. Tasted fine. Decided to go with a larger baking dish, forgot the recipe and used the whipped cream to make "crumbly little cakes" instead. These are softer on the inside than the photo shows and really weren't that bad at all, I just wish I could think of a better way to phrase this. Thanks! :)
