30 years ago my babysitter used to make these with me. It fulfilled every mud pie fantasy I ever had because we got to dump all kinds of creative things in these cookies. Hope you like them.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies turned out perfectly. They were soft and chewy and had the perfect amount of chocolate chips.

The cookies didn't turn out as I expected. They were a bit dry and crumbly.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.
