These cookies are a great way to use up leftover applesauce. They're also a good way to get your kids eating fruit.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cookies fell apart when I took them out of the oven. I think I might have underbaked them.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my cookies turned out a little dry. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

I've made these cookies a few times now, and they're always a hit. I like to add a little bit of chocolate chips or nuts to the dough for a little extra flavor.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think they would be better with a little less sugar.

I'm not sure I'd call these cookies 'scouts', but they're still very good. They have a soft, cake-like texture and a sweet, buttery flavor.

I added a little bit of vanilla extract to the dough, which gave them a nice extra flavor boost. These are now my go-to cookie recipe!

I've never made homemade cookies before, but this recipe was easy to follow. The cookies turned out perfectly golden brown and crispy on the edges. I'm so glad I tried it!
