Preheat oven to 350 degrees F/ 176 degrees C.
Cream margarine and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed and until fluffy and creamy (about 2 minutes)
Add eggs.
Beat with electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 1 minute).
Add the remainder of the ingredients.
Mix in by hand with a large mixing spoon.*If the cookies are still 'too wet' and not the right texture (as shown) add a little more flour.
Drop by teaspoonful onto an ungreased cookie sheet. You could also use parchment paper.* These do not spread very much, so you can get up to 16 cookies on a 9x13 baking sheet.
Bake cookies at 350 degrees F / 176 degrees C for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom.*12 minutes was perfect for me!
Let them sit on baking sheet for 2-3 minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool.
Notes
Please see post contents for important recipe information, substitutions and tips!*You may need to add a little more flour, as I live in a very dry climate and often use a little less flour.
