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

These cookies were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some spices or extracts next time.

These cookies were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try chilling the dough for longer next time.

These cookies were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, maybe some chopped nuts or dried fruit.
