I was disappointed with these cookies. The recipe was easy to follow, but the cookies turned out flat and hard. The flavor was also bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

These cookies were good, but not great. The recipe was easy to follow and the cookies turned out as expected. However, I found the cookies to be a bit dry and crumbly. The frosting helped to add some moisture, but it wasn't enough to make the cookies
