These cookies are okay. They're not my favorite, but they're not bad either. I might make them again if I'm in a pinch.

These cookies are good, but they're not as good as my grandma's. I think I'll stick to her recipe next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cookies came out flat and greasy. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

These cookies are way too sweet for my taste. I had to cut the sugar in half to make them palatable.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as good as I hoped. They were a little too dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cookies are so delicious! The butter flavor really comes through, and they're perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
