"I hate leaving low stars but this recipe leaves one wanting. The potential for a delicious cookie is there, given the ingredients, but the result misses the boat. The cookies turned out surprisingly..." See more bland; the spices definitely need to be upped, or perhaps an addition of finely diced apples or ginger would give a kick. Also, the texture is a bit too spongy for my liking. This recipe pales in comparison to other autumn spice cookies and is not a keeper."
