I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my cookies didn't turn out as white as the ones in the pictures. They're still tasty though!

I had a little trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape, but they still tasted great. I think I'll try chilling the dough for longer next time.

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

I'm not a big fan of mint, but I actually really enjoyed these cookies. The mint flavor is subtle and not overpowering.
