[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]I made these cookies last night and they were delicious! The dough was easy to work with and the cookies turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.
