These almond cookies were just okay. They were a bit dry and crumbly, and the almond flavor was not very strong. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I might try making them again with some modifications.

These almond cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still enjoyable. The texture was nice and chewy, and the almond flavor was prominent. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe if you prefer a less sweet cookie
