You're right about watching them; they will burn in a hurry. It would be better if you rolled the dough out and cut them out. About 1/4-1/2 cup too much flour was called for the recipe. Although, the raw dough was exceptionally good to eat!

I'm not much of a cook but I was experiencing the cooking bug lately and decided to make something simple. These were easy and quick to prepare and so simple to bake! Even my husband was impressed! I will be sure to stick this on in my family's private cookbook with a special thank you to Brittany for sharing online! These are wonderful and I suggest anyone with kids or just looking for something delicious and quick to give these a try!!

These aren't really cookies, but more like sweet biscuits. Way too floury. And they won't flatten when you bake them, so make sure to flatten them on the tray. With a couple I added shredded coconut into the mix and that made them really good. Otherwise, they had a weird, not very sweet taste. But they were easy to make, not so easy to eat.

I thought these cookies turned out really well! Just make sure you watch them -- nobody likes burnt sugar cookies. The ingredients were simple, and it did not require a lot of utensils and bowls. I give it two thumbs up! It's a keeper!

These were more cake-like/puffy than I had hoped, but nevertheless were still delicious, buttery and short. A nice plain, not too sweet cookie. The recipe did not make 6 dozen - I got about 50 small cookies.

Very good cookies. I followed a few of the other reviews, but cut the flour by a lil bit more -- I only used 2 cups of flour. Cookies seemed to come out well. The dough was delicious raw (can't help it, still a kid at heart). Baked for about 6 minutes and the cookies were deliciously soft and kinda doughy.
