These cookies were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the dough. I'll try again soon and be more careful not to overmix it.

These cookies are delicious! I love the combination of flavors and textures. The only thing I would change is to make them a bit smaller. They're pretty big and rich, so a smaller size would be perfect.

The cookies were a bit dry, even though I followed the recipe exactly. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I'll try again soon and see if I can get them right.

These 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.

I've made these cookies several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're easy to make and always turn out delicious. I love the addition of the lemon glaze, which gives them a nice tangy flavor.

These cookies were a breeze to make and turned out perfectly. I love that I didn't have to chill the dough, which saved me a lot of time. The cookies were a hit with my family and friends.

I'm not usually a fan of lemon desserts, but these cookies changed my mind. The glaze is perfectly balanced and complements the soft, buttery cookies. I'll definitely be making these again soon!

These cookies are a delightful blend of textures and flavors. The crispy edges and chewy centers create a satisfying contrast, while the subtle sweetness of the dough pairs perfectly with the tangy lemon glaze. I'll definitely be making these again!
