    They didn't taste like lemon at all! I even added 1 tablespoon more to the mix and still not lemon-y enough! I was very disappointed

    Wonderful. I love adding pecans to the cookie mixture for some texture. They turn out perfect every time!!

    This was an amazing snack for my mother's jewelry party. They were delicious right out of the oven and were still delicious a week later! The whole family gave them two thumbs up!
