These cookies are delicious! But they're a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try adding an extra egg yolk next time to see if that helps.

These cookies were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the perfect combination of sweet and heat. I think next time I'll try making them with half the amount of cayenne pepper.

I was a bit skeptical about these cookies at first, but I'm so glad I tried them! They're so delicious and flavorful. I love the hint of heat from the cayenne pepper. I'll definitely be making these again.
