These are excellent with some cream cheese frosting on top. They are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside- yummy! I would definitely recommend freezing them a little before cutting into cookies- made it much easier. Thanks for posting!

very tasty. Could use a bit of frosting on top of it. Other than that it was very good.

These are an unusual cookie but filled with flavour. I will be making these again for sure. Thanks for the recipe.

Not the prettiest cookie but WOW the flavor! These are completely addictive. Crusty but soft with a wonderful cinnamon taste. I had a cup of chopped walnuts handy and threw them in the filling. YUM!
