Delicious, fruity, plum taste. Recipe simple and works well. Mine also took a few more minutes than specified.

These are good. I substituted coconut oil for the shortening. The cookies do not spread much so I flattened the dough balls. Like the other reviewers I increased the baking time to 17-20 minutes.
