These cookies are a waste of time and ingredients. They're dry and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as good as yours. Maybe I did something wrong.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good.

I've made these cookies several times now, and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The dough is easy to work with, and the cookies come out perfectly golden brown every time.

These cookies were a hit at my holiday party! They're buttery, crumbly, and the maple flavor is perfectly balanced with the walnuts. I'll definitely be making these again.
