These cookies were a little dry. I think I'll try adding some more butter to the dough next time.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of egg nog, but I still enjoyed these cookies. The cookie itself is really good and the filling is subtle.
