[email protected]These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I cut the sugar by half and they were much better. The lemon flavor was still very strong, which I loved. I will definitely be making these again with the reduced sugar.

[email protected]These cookies were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I overmixed the dough. Next time I will be more careful.
