This is an awesome recipe! We like things a little sweeter so I added an extra cup of powdered sugar to our batch.
They turned out GREAT!!!

Will be making this again! So light and melt-in-the-mouth. I found the recipe quick and easy and really great for the cookie press. Thanks!

I made those cookies and they turned out wonderful. I made different ones from the same batch, little balls rolled in sugar and cinnamon, some mixed with white chocolate and cranberries, others dipped in dark chocolate and some just plain with a little bit of sugar sprinkled on them. They are delicious and I'm making another batch today!

There is definitely something missing from this recipe. It was a great disappointment to me and my friends.
