I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these cookies were a disaster. They were burnt and tasted terrible.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They were a bit dry and crumbly.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

These cookies are amazing! They're so soft and chewy, and the flavor is incredible. I love the combination of chocolate and nuts.
