I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I accidentally added too much salt to the dough. The cookies were still edible, but they were a bit too salty for my taste.

I wasn't able to find chocolate chips, so I used chopped up chocolate bars instead. The cookies still turned out great.

I love that these cookies can be made ahead of time. I often make a batch of dough and keep it in the freezer so I can have fresh cookies whenever I want.
