I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar.

I'm not a big fan of pecans, but these cookies were still really good. The cookie itself is soft and chewy, and the chocolate drizzle is the perfect finishing touch.

These cookies are amazing! I love the way the pecans add a little crunch to the cookie. And the double drizzle of chocolate makes them extra special.
