These strudels were a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of cheese next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my strudels turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The strudels were delicious, but they were a bit too time-consuming to make. I'll probably only make them for special occasions.
