I had trouble finding some of the ingredients for this recipe. I had to substitute a few things, but the cookies still turned out pretty good.

The cookies didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I might have overbaked them.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
