Review by Karen on September 15th, 2011:

This turned out horrible. The cookies burned within the first 10 minutes.

Review by Colleen on October 13th, 2011:

I didn't have dates or pecans, so I used raisins, which worked fine. The recipe says bake for 25 mins, but after 15 mins mine were already getting very toasty on top, so I took them out. A tiny bit underdone in the middle, but better that than burnt!

I made a few adjustments. Increased the recipe by 1/2 but substituted 1 cup of oatmeal for wholemeal flour. Also added a cup of wheatbran mixed with pumpkin seeds/nuts (instead of just nuts). Also used soft brown sugar instead of white. Baked in fan oven, middle shelf at 170C for 17mins (checking regularly). Then left to cool down in bottom of oven. Kids love them. They're soft and chewy, rather than crunchy but tasty all the same
