I love ot have this mix in the cupboard. I have made this as gifts and include chcolate chips , nuts, sprinkles, dried cherries, cranberries. What a welcome smell to come home to when it is so easy to whip up a batch of homemade cookies

I decided that since I had all the ingredients for this mix that I would give it a whirl. It only took a few minutes to throw it together. I've tried some of the recipes that go with it and I love it. It is incredibly convenient. I can make a batch of cookies faster than I can tear open a bag. :)

This is a good recipe and will keep for later use if you want. I added like another cup of flour to make it more into a dough. You need to fiddle with it though, because it is definatly not enough flour for the dough you need for thick cookies.

This is a simple recipe for 9 different cookies, you just make the basic recipe, and then add to it depending on what type of cookie you want! I love this! It made making cookies so simple! I loved the Peanut Butter! I had problems with the sugar recipe, I think that it calls for to much butter, it made the batter to runny!

WOW! I made the chocolate drop cookies with my nieces (4 and 6) and it was so easy and they loved it! The cookies were nice and moist and gooey, I only made 16 instead of 18 but then again we didn't really measure, just dopped them onto the pan! Really great!

This is convenient, but not very tasty. The powdered milk is nutritious, but gives it an odd flavor. I tried several variations, and ended up adding things every time to make the texture right. I would rather use an individual recipe that I know will work. This might be good for beginning cooks or kids who like to cook and aren't real picky about the results.

I like this stuff! It's so simple my 11 an 13 year old kids have been using it with the Basic Chocolate Drop recipe. They can make their own when they beg for sweets. Very economical, I finally found a use for that powdered milk thats been sitting up in my cabinet. The cookies are nothing fancy but taste very good for the modest ingredients. I think the kids can try the peanut butter ones next.
