These cookies are a bit too soft for my taste. I think I might try baking them for a few minutes longer next time.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. I think I might have needed to chill the dough for longer.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon, but these cookies were still really good. The ginger flavor is strong enough to balance out the lemon.
