Please tell me someone can make Bordeaux cookies!

Okay, so here's my dilemma.

I love Pepperidge Farm Bordeaux cookies.  
More than I should, of course...  I think 
it's the texture that really does it for 
me.

Anyway, do any of you have a cookie recipe 
for something similar?  I remember making 
some really yummy crunchy oatmeal lace 
cookies (Swedish in origin, I believe) when 
I was in the 6th grade for a project, but 
that recipe is long gone.  Besides, that 
always turned out kinda chewy after a few 
hours.

So, I'm looking for a REALLY crispy/crunchy 
cookie with a bit of a brown sugar/molasses/
golden syrup flavor, spreads crumbs all 
over you, and is nice and flat and NOT SOFT 
AT ALL.  The kind of recipe that instructs 
you to melt the butter first.  I suppose I 
could use up all the flour in the house 
trying to make one of my own, but I think 
I'd go crazy, and my husband would KILL me 
for dirtying all his clean dishes. ;)

Hopefully waiting,
JenP (who has a really bad habit of eating 
sugary things when she's stressed out, and 
who has been REALLY stressed out today, so 
maybe you're not doing me any favors by 
giving me a recipe for a whole BATCH of 
yummy cookies...)
