[email protected]These cookies were delicious, but they were a bit too crumbly for my liking. I think I'll try chilling the dough for longer next time.

[email protected]Easy to make and delicious! The cookies turned out soft and chewy, with just the right amount of sweetness. I used dark chocolate chips instead of walnuts and they were still amazing.
