These cookies are a great make-ahead dessert. I made them a few days in advance and they were still just as delicious when I served them. They're also perfect for gifting.

I'm not a huge fan of walnuts, but I actually really liked these cookies. The walnut flavor was subtle and the cookies were perfectly sweet. I'll definitely be making these again.

These cookies were a disaster! The dough was too sticky and the cookies fell apart when I tried to cut them. I ended up throwing the whole batch away.

I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either. I probably won't make them again.

The cookies didn't turn out as I expected. They were a bit too dry and the glaze was too thick. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I've tried many walnut cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are so flavorful and the glaze adds a perfect touch of sweetness. I love that they're not too hard or too soft, they have the perfect texture.
