I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out right. They were too flat and didn't have much flavor.

These cookies were a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter to the dough.

I had a hard time finding the right sprinkles for these cookies. I ended up using some rainbow sprinkles that I had on hand, but they didn't really match the pastel colors of the cookies.

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