I had to make a few changes to the recipe but they came out delicious! I didn't have any apricots so I used a cup of mixed dried berries (cherries, blueberries, raspberries and strawberries and I didn't have walnuts so I used slivered almonds. Also, I only had half a teaspoon of vanilla so I used that, along with 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract. I used 4 T of the light butter that has canola oil in it. I am so pleased with the way that these came out that I will probably use my version to make these from now on. If you are an almond lover, I highly reccommend using some almond extract. It complimented the flavors of the cherries and dark chocolate exquisitely. A keeper!

These cookies are great - I doubled the recipe and got about 33 cookies. I didn't roll them because the batter was too sticky and wet. I just used a tablespoon and flattened them a bit and they were fine. I baked them at 375 for 12 minutes and they were perfect - very soft! This one is a keeper.

I thought these had more flavor with whole wheat flour and all the yummy mix-in's. Just rememember that while they have more nutritional value than typical cookies, they're NOT low cal or low fat

These cookies are excellent and satisfy the sweet tooth without all of the guilt. I added some dried blueberries and flax seeds to the other ingredients. Remember to keep your wheat pastry flour in the fridge or freezer so it doesn't go rancid!

Everyone in my house was skeptical when I said I was making "healthy" cookies but each one of them asked for more. These cookies are great! My co-workers even asked for the recipe. I substituted dried blueberries for the apricots and roasted pecans for the walnuts. Fantastic recipe - I'll make them again.

My daughter and I made these to put in her lunchbox, and they were a big hit with both of my kids. I love that you used only whole wheat flour, and a smaller amount of butter. We'll definately make these often!

The cookies were tasty and easy to make, however, they are small and you're lucky to get 18 cookies from mix. Also, the recipe does not show bake time (I read 350 or 375?. I recommend doubling the recipe to really get a good size cookie witrh plenty for the family to eat.

The cookies are tasty - the dark chocolate really complements the dried fruit! On the recipe you forgot to say to bake at 375 (which you DID mention on the show! and if you cook them more than 10 mins. they get a little too hard after they're cooled. Also, I couldn't taste the nuts, but I probably just didn't toast them long enough! Thanks, Ellie! Great recipe and a lot of fun to make!!!

These cookies ae amazing! After we made the first batch, my daughter and I made another, since all the ingredients were out. Put them in a freezer bag for the next time we have a craving. The combination of fruits and chocolate are so good, like all of Ellie's recipes. Baked them at 350, since I didn't see it on the recipe. Great job, Ellie!
