I love that these cookies can be made ahead of time. I often make them a few days before a party or event so that I don't have to worry about baking them at the last minute.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover spices. I always have a jar of cinnamon and nutmeg in my pantry, so I can make these cookies anytime.

These cookies were a little dry. I think I might try adding an extra egg yolk to the dough next time.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. I think I might have needed to chill the dough for longer.

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