These cookies are a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some vanilla extract or chocolate chips next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

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.
