I'm not a big fan of sprinkles, but these cookies were still really good. The dough was soft and chewy and the cookies had a great flavor.

These cookies were a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some extra butter next time.

I had a hard time getting the dough to the right consistency. It was too sticky at first, but then I added too much flour and it became too dry.
