As others noted, I halved the recipe and it still made 56 big cookies. For personal preference I substituted a bag of milk chocolate chips for the pecans. Big hit in my house!","CommentId":7,"DateRated":"03\/23\/2019 22:04","GUID":"c90ee400a2e44985a24eada95098324c","MemberId":7088782,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"mikes1me","SubmittedDate":"03\/23\/2019 22:04"},{"Comment":"These are absolutely delicious! The recipe makes a LOT. Use real butter for best results. Whenever I make these, I have to take some for some ladies that I work with because they talk about how awesome these cookies are all the time. They truly are delicious...chewy and crispy at the same time with the delicious hint of molasses and toasty pecans. Mmmmm Mmmmm!","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"03\/19\/2019 01:40","GUID":"69943143c6e74be8bc323a9b1fb069e8","MemberId":1444553,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Moophey","SubmittedDate":"03\/19\/2019 01:40"},{"Comment":"I also make half a recipe because there are just 2 of us. They were awesome as is, then I tried add-ins. I use the full 3 teaspoons of cinnamon for half of the recipe because we like it. So far I've tried chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and raisins. Today I added 1 c of coconut and made half with chocolate chips and half with raisins. I'm expecting them to be delicious!\nNext batch will be craisins and white chips.","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"02\/24\/2019 00:08","GUID":"4c0bed6afafe4e79abc5422b660ba56a","MemberId":9613679,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"carol","SubmittedDate":"02\/24\/2019 00:08"},{"Comment":"These are so delicious. This makes a lot of cookies so I halved it. I baked 4 dozen and froze the rest in logs so I can slice and bake right out of the freezer. I did make a few changes since my kids wanted chocolate chip cookies--omitted the cinnamo and added 2 cups chocolate chips. Super quick to make.","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"02\/05\/2019 05:09","GUID":"4b12f6e0f2d346ae88de41f37b85fe9b","MemberId":9605732,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"m","SubmittedDate":"02\/05\/2019 05:09"},{"Comment":"I have not made these, hence no star rating. I don\u2019t bake often and am just wondering if these would still be delicious if I quartered this recipe? 180 cookies sounds overwhelming!

My family fell in love with these cookies, the molasses is a great replacement for brown sugar and the hint of cinnamon is wonderful.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"12\/05\/2011 12:59","GUID":"0e78003bc4f247b2a48cb9962d42a205","MemberId":5547061,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"jkguillory","SubmittedDate":"12\/05\/2011 12:59"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
