I really enjoyed the taste of these cookies.I tasted lavender cookies in England. I believe it was shortbread ones though. Toh has a recipe for these too. They don't taste soapy, but if you use lavender as I do then that is what comes to mind. Try them!

How is this supposed to make 84 cookies? I got maybe 1 1/2 dozen out of it? Those are some SMALL cookies! But they were really good!

I agree with some of the other reviews that the lavender is strong and that you either love it or you don't. I happen to really love it! If you want the flavor to be more subtle add half the amount. This are a delightfully refreshing cookie. A great way to bring in the spring season. I will definately make it again and I might even try another persons tip of adding sugar or lemon icing! If you enjoy this lavender recipe, you might also enjoy TOH's Almond Lavender Cake! YUM!

These cookies are great! I buy "little sky" lavender sugar and use it in the recipe and add a lemon icing. This is one of my favorite recipes!

My family found the lavender taste too strong, and called them soapy tasting as well. I guess you either like lavender taste or not. We were not fans.

I love how these cookies turned out. I dipped a glass bottom in sugar and punched the cookies out. Very tasty and something different.

I tried this recipe and found the amount of lavender too heavy. They were soapy tasting. I will try again with a smaller amount of lavender.
