These kifli cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still enjoyable. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time. Other than that, the cookies were easy to make and turned out beautifully.

These kifli cookies were a nice treat, but I found them to be a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some spices or extracts next time to give them more flavor.

These kifli cookies were a disappointment. The dough was difficult to work with and the cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I won't be making these again.
