These cookies were a bit dry and crumbly. I think I overcooked them.

These cookies were good, but they were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I've made these cookies several times and they're always a hit. They're a great way to use up ripe dates and they're a healthier alternative to traditional cookies.
