I toasted the rolled oats called for in Ms. Fields's recipe, just to get a little more texture out of them. Make sure the mixture is hot when you drop the cookies or the texture will be too crumbly.

I'm allergic to chocolate, so I used butterscotch chips instead. The cookies were still delicious!

I didn't have any peanut butter on hand, so I used almond butter instead. The cookies turned out great!

I found these cookies to be a bit dry. I think I'll add a little extra butter next time.
