I've been making these since I was a teenager. They look so cute when cut into little rectangles (rhomboid?) with a stripe of two different jellies in them. Now I use the all fruit jelly to cut down on the amount of sugar.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for me. I think I'll try cutting back on the sugar next time.

These cookies are really easy to make, but they don't look as impressive as some other recipes. I think I'll try decorating them with sprinkles or chopped nuts next time.

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, so I used Nutella instead. The cookies were still delicious!

I had a hard time finding graham cracker crumbs, so I used crushed vanilla wafers instead. The cookies still turned out great!

These cookies are a bit sweet for my taste, but they're still really good. I think I'll try cutting back on the sugar next time I make them.

I've tried a lot of different magic carpet cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are always soft and chewy, and the frosting is to die for.

I love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter in these cookies. They're the perfect balance of sweet and salty.
