These cookies are mixed differently from other cookies (like pie crust) but they are the best. These are the ones I grew up on. At Christmas my mom would add almond extract and green food color then make tree pattern.

I love the versatility of this recipe. You can add different extracts or sprinkles to change up the flavor. I've even made them with peanut butter instead of butter and they were delicious!

These cookies were a bit bland. I think they needed more flavoring.

The cookies were delicious, but they spread out too much in the oven. I think I needed to chill the dough for longer before baking.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
