Easter Egg Cookies image

My mother started baking these cookies with me and my eight brothers and sisters when I was a child, and I carried on the tradition with our four youngsters when they were little. Now, my children are grown and can make these cookies with their own tots. -Barbara Neuweg, West Point, Iowa

These cookies were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
