In reply to Kathryn. Hi Kathryn - if you don't have parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat, then just use an ungreased baking sheet. Your cookies are done when they have a firm edge and are golden brown.

I don’t have parchment paper on hand. What should I use in it’s place? And, if I make the cookies smaller than 1/4 cup, how do I know when they are ready? Thanks!

In reply to Becky. Sorry Becky - you could try changing up the leavening

I could taste the baking soda in the cookies, which is a real turn-off for me.

In reply to Whitney E. Thanks! So glad you enjoyed the cookies. For the bars it looks like I did a bake time of 40 min. at 300º until they are set and starting to pull away from the sides of the pan. I'd love for you to share the praline icing recipe. That sounds like a fabulous addition.

In reply to Barbara. I know this was posted a long time ago but I have just found it. They were amazing, but I am wondering what temperature and for how long on the bars? I also added a praline icing to mine which put them over the top.

Wow sis, what a mess, bet it was kinda scary. Good thing you know how to handle things so well, and Nick could help. All things considered, they don’t even seem like you had issues, look yummy!

My goodness what a story! I guess you got the controls figured out eventually. I’m so glad you told us about what really happens in your kitchen, it makes you very “real”. These are just the kind of cookies or bars (I would love them both) that my family would devour. Thanks for the recipe.
