WARNING: Don't tell anybody what's in them until after they have tried them, garlic in cookies doesn't sound good but they are wonderful. You can adjust garlic more or less but start with 10 cloves, it really is mellow in flavor.

I'm going to try these, wolfmom. Then I can't say I haven't used garlic in deserts. Maybe I'll bring them for Thanksgiving. My cousin is a garlic lover like me. I won't tell anyone the secret ingredient Have you tried these?

Yes, I have baked these cookies, they really aren't bad. The garlic kind of crisps up, adds a crunch to them. I hope you enjoy them. My husband like garlic, so I really made them for him and he liked them.

Hmmmm... sounds interesting.
