I have made these delicious cookies twice now, omitted the xantham gum because I didn't have any, so doubled the amount of gluten-free flour, which worked pretty well to hold things together. Half plain, half self-raising worked fine too. Will definitely make them again. - 18 Dec 2011 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
Made these as per instructions but mine came out very brittle so will try again with adjustments you recommend. - 01 Jul 2011 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
I had to add extra flour as still very sticky after chilling. Turned out yummy but look like normal cookies not like the pic above ! 😀 - 09 Jun 2014 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
