Kelly,
I LOVED these cookies! They arrived in fantastic shape and I doled out one a night for almost 2 weeks. I do have pictures too I’ll be posting soon.
Thanks so much for making them part of my cookie package!

Add a little extra flour and chill the batter.
I love the lemon filling idea.

Any time a cookie spreads like that I have found that adding 1/2 to 1 extra cup of flour makes them behave properly. I know – most people think that is awful advice but IT WORKS!!!!

Hi Vicki — You and my husband both! I didn’t fill the burnt ones — no sense wasting that luscious cream filling. I need to try these again!
Tanna — no kidding. For some reason I’ve run across a recent batch of recipes — all in magazines — that just aren’t what they seem. It’s pretty unusual for me, so I’m a bit annoyed by the whole thing. Do they think people don’t try the recipes?
Hey BD — they still turned out tasty in spite of their less than appealing appearance.
Caitlin, if you try them and they work for you, please tell me your secrets, okay?
grace — I can just see you doing that and grinning the entire time.
DaviMack — thanks for speaking up on this because I’m at the point where if I see molasses in a recipe, I want to avoid it. Sad, because I do like the flavor.
Paula, glad you agree on the time. Really wondering it it’s a typo or something.
Ahhhh Chou. THANKS! I did a bit of reading but my attitude about there being so many other recipes out there keeps pulling me away from trying to see what’s up with a recipe that isn’t working for me. You are so right on the overall quantity of sugar and yep, I’d wondered about the chilling time. I totally appreciate your advice!
