I'm giving this recipe 4 stars because the cookies were easy to make and they tasted good. However, I think they could have been better with a few tweaks.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't amazing either.

These cookies were a bit bland. I think they needed more spices.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to hold their shape. They spread out too much in the oven.

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 next time.

I'm not a huge fan of eggnog, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The eggnog flavor is subtle, and the cookies are nice and soft.
