I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and hard. I'm going to try again soon, though.

I'm not a huge fan of vanilla, but these cookies are still really good. The dough is so soft and chewy, and the frosting is the perfect amount of sweetness.

I had a hard time getting the dough to roll out. It was too sticky. I ended up adding more flour, but then the cookies were too dry.

These cookies are delicious, but they're a little too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
