    These were the most bland tasting cookies I have had in a long time. I have no idea why anyone here rated these high. They were soft, and actually if I cooked them slightly longer than in the recipe the texture was better. Still bland though, and I will not make this again. Sorry.

    These cookies are great, crunchy on the outside and a chewy sweet center. I substitute old fashioned oats for quick oats. Seems to have a nuttier taste. The only issue is that the ratio of filling to cookies is off. I make a double batch of cookies and a single batch of filling, this works perfect.

    Agreed with everyone else that the actual cookie great regardless of the filling. I also agree with Kelly's comment that the molasses was all she could taste in the filling. I thought it was overwhelming, and on my next attempt with these cookies am going to cut WAY back on it.

    Don't get me wrong, the cookies were great-not too sweet or peanut buttery, the dough starts out dry, so be careful not to over bake. But the frosting is amazing and really makes the cookie.

    I loved the fluffy/ crunchy/ delicious cookies. I made them bite sized and filled with buttercream and jam since I was out of powedered sugar and molasses. They are awesome. I ran out of vanilla so I put butterscotch schnapps in them and were still awesome. They were really easy. I'm 11 and although I am a really advanced chef for my age, it was still nice to have a quick and delicious go-to recipe. TOTALLY a SWEET recipe (nobody had to know how easy they were ;-

    These are so delicious and easy to make. I used nutella, and it is a sugar overload, but sooooo yummy! I flattened them out a bit on the baking sheet to make them easier to smoosh together as a sandwich. As others have said, though, even by themselves these pb cookies are fantastic. The oats definitely add some goodness that the usual pb cookie lacks. I'm making these for a bake sale fundraiser, but I will be sure to make more for my family soon. Kudos gentlemen!

    Delicious! I gave this recipe four stars (instead of 5 simply because I did not like the Pb icing. The molasses was all I could taste, and was unaware of my dislike for that taste until now! But the cookies without the icing were great!

    I have been going through a home made chocolate chip cookie phase, so last night when I wanted to bake again, my frend was like, will you try to make something else!

    I had everything on hand which was super convenient. These were really easy to make, quick, and the oats give them a chewy, hearty texture. I didn't make the filling or try to sandwich them, they were good as a single cookie. I made them last night and they're almost gone today.

    Will def add this recipe to my regimen and try them again!

    These are so good! Good as a single cookie, but as a sandwich cookie, they are the best! My husband kept the leftover frosting to eat on Ritz crackers for a snack. I even used extra crunchy peanut butter and still turned out wonderful.

    Next time I need to get out of the doghouse, I am gonna whip out these cookies!! The look on his face as he was eating them was priceless! Thank you Dan and Steve!!

    Made these as just straight up peanut butter cookies bcz Im not a fan of sandwich cookies and they were awesome! Soft but not crumbly with just the right amount of peanut butter flavor. Super easy to make too, i managed to throw them together at 5am before a long run. :
