These cookies are the best buttermilk cookies I've ever had. They're soft, fluffy, and have the perfect amount of tang.

These cookies were a complete disaster. They were burnt on the outside and raw on the inside.

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

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but other than that they were good.

These cookies were easy to make and turned out great! I didn't have any buttermilk on hand, so I used sour milk instead. They still turned out delicious.

I made these cookies last night and they were delicious! The only thing I would change is to add a little more sugar to the batter. Other than that, they were perfect.
