I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cookies came out flat and hard. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

The cookies were a bit bland. I think I'll add some spices next time, like cinnamon or nutmeg.

I found the dough to be a bit too dry. I had to add an extra egg to get it to come together.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

I'm not a huge fan of currants, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The dough is soft and chewy, and the currants add a nice pop of flavor.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover currants. They're also a nice change from the usual chocolate chip cookie.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies came out perfect. They're crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.

These cookies were easy to make and turned out beautifully. The currants added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the dough.
