The cookies were a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding a little more butter next time.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise they were good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of orange-flavored desserts, but these cookies changed my mind. They were so moist and flavorful, and the orange zest added a lovely citrusy brightness. I'll definitely be making these again soon!
