I thought these kourabiethes were just okay. They were a little dry, and the flavor was a bit bland.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my kourabiethes turned out flat and greasy.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my kourabiethes didn't turn out as expected. They were a little dry and crumbly.

These kourabiethes were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of Greek cookies, but these kourabiethes were an exception. They were light and airy, with a delicate flavor. I'll definitely be making them again.
