[email protected]These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They were very easy to make and the dough was very easy to work with. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

[email protected]I've made these cookies several times now and they always turn out perfectly. They're the perfect balance of chewy and crispy, and the flavor is amazing. I love that I can customize them with different sprinkles or frosting depending on the occasion.

[email protected]These cookies were absolutely delicious! I made them for a Christmas party and they were a huge hit. They were so easy to make and the dough was very forgiving. I will definitely be making these again!
