These cookies are a waste of time and ingredients. Don't bother making them.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies came out flat and didn't have much flavor.

These cookies are way too hard. I could barely bite into them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as good as I expected. They were a bit too crumbly.

These cookies were a bit dry. I think I would have liked them better if they had been a little more moist.

I found the anise flavor to be a bit overpowering. Otherwise, the cookies were good.

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good.

I've never made Italian cookies before, but these were surprisingly easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.

These cookies are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort. They're so delicious and unique.

I was a little hesitant to try these cookies because I'm not a big fan of anise, but I'm so glad I did! The anise flavor is subtle and not overpowering at all. The cookies are also perfectly crispy and have a great texture.
