I love the flavor of these cookies, but they're a little too crumbly for my taste.

These cookies are delicious, but they're very rich. I can only eat one or two at a time.

These cookies are really good, but they're a lot of work to make. I'm not sure if I'll make them again.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
