  1. These cookies are soooo goood! They are easy to make and are wonderful for cookie trays. Its hard to keep away from them when they are warm! I drizzled a light glaze on them also thanks for sharing this recipe
     
  2. These cookies did not turn out as well as I was hoping. The dough, even after chilled, was hard to work with. Slicing the dough usually made it fall apart. All of the cinnamon sugar just fell out completely. I baked them for 12 minutes and they were still very doughy. And they had no flavor whatsoever! I was disappointed.
     
  3. Wow, I was so disappointed in this recipe! First of all the dough didn't hold together, even after 4 + hours in the fridge. I followed another reviewers tip for adding more filling - another mistake, all it did was add to the crumble disaster. There was no way this recipe would make 5 dozen cookies, it barely made 2 dozen crumble piles on the cookie sheet. It tasted fine ... but we won't make this recipe ever again.
     
  4. Very good, I did have a problem rolling them but it is just something that I have very little experience with so wasn't used to the stickiness. A little more time consuming for the soccer mom (me) but for the "Martha" mom, it is a great tasting presentation piece.
     
  5. I love them and so does my Grandson.

  1. Very good cookie. I used margarine instead of butter and found the cookies were dry and disappointing. I added a glaze and they were delicious. I will try the recipe again using butter.
