I've been making cookies for a lot of years, and this doesn't even sound good. The proportions are wrong. The recipe calls for way too much flour for the amount of butter, eggs, and sugar. Sorry, but I wouldn't waste the time and ingredients on this recipe..
no oven temp nor baking times listed, agree with John, this dough comes out way too dry...who makes a baking recipe and does not list the baking time nor oven temp???
I'll put 3 stars as I haven't tried the recipe yet / funny ; reviews range from one star to 5 ... I imagine it has to do more with personal taste or mistakes in the baking process ... I prefer to use HALF pecan meal ( or any ground up nut meal ) ...and half flour ; this makes a more nutritious / crunchy cookie .... - just my persoanl preference ..
Love this recipe and you bake your cookies at 375 for approximately 10-12 minutes. Times are on each recipe video!
I cut it in half because the actual amount is way too much and . wow. this sucks! this dough so so dry and tasteless, there’s way way Way too much flour! i’m very disappointed. very gross and didn’t even make very good baked cookies? burnt up immediately
very nice simple recipe to bake for whenever and you dont need to go out and buy supplies because im pretty sure you have all this stuff at home the down side is i cant seem what time and what degrees to bake it for so i just put it at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for ten minutes i hope it works!\(???*\))
very good simple recipe ;)

This is a very good basic cookie dough recipe with lots of options. You can add flavorings to make the dough different. After dividing into 4 equal 2 cup portions I made some changes. To one I added fresh lemon peel from 3 lemons. i made sandwich sandwich cookies using lemon curd. The lemon curd did ooze out a bit so ext time will mix the lemon curd with a buttercream. To another 2 cup portion I mixed 1 tsp cinnamon with 1/4 tsp each nutmeg and rum extract. i rolled them out and frosted when cooled with a standard buttercream I added 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1/4 tsp nutmeg to. I also used eggnog instead of milk. Super good.
Can u use a standard mixer to mix the dough it looks yummy can't wait to try it
