[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. Maybe I didn't measure the ingredients correctly.

[email protected]I've made these cookies several times and they always turn out great. They're chewy and flavorful, and they freeze well, too. I like to add a little extra cinnamon and nutmeg for a more festive flavor during the holidays.
