These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I'll probably make them again, but I'll use less sugar in the frosting.

I've tried many frosted butter cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are soft and chewy, and the frosting is creamy and smooth.

I was disappointed with these cookies. The dough was too dry and the frosting was too runny. I won't be making them again.
