    I loved the taste, and they were so light, they fell apart, I couldn't get them off the cookie sheet, without them falling apart. I followed the recipe to a tee, and I couldn't figure out why they did that.

    The cookies tasted very good, but they fell apart. I followed the recipe to a "T". Might try them again, but cook them longer.

    This receipe was horrible. The temperature is incorrect, took very long to finally cook. Then taking the cookie off the cookie sheet everyone totally feel apart. I have a dozen of mush now.

    Heavenly! I also thought that the timing must be off (I baked mine at 425 for 30 minutes, but then I realized that I made mine too big - I definitely did not yield 4 dozen! This recipe is almost exactly like the recipe that my family has been making every Christmas for the past 50 years (except we use pecans. I am very happy to see it on FN! For first timers: make sure you use unsalted butter and note that the dough will be quite powdery (polvo means powder in Spanish, but it will hold.

    These cookies are absolutely fabulous. I made them with about 1/2 cups less walnuts (becuase that's all I had on hand and baked them for about 5 minutes longer. Then I remembered a cookie recipe from 12 days of Christmas from 2 years ago and dabbed them with some orange water before rolling them in the powdered sugar and that just gave them a fabulous finishing touch. This recipe is super easy to make and definitely a keeper.

    They seem a little dry but are delicious. I wonder what the calories and nuitritional values are.
