They're okay. I followed the recipe and after my first pan of test batch, I decided to add an egg. It seem to work better. I could not roll them in a ball so I used a pastry bag. I also ended up mixing in the sprinkles in the batter and adding some to the top as well.

I was so excited to find this recipe and use champagne in the cookies. Like the other viewers said, the dough was so sticky and IMPOSSIBLE to roll into a ball. I almost threw it away but I decided to spoon it onto the cookie sheet and see how they would turn out. Not so good.

I had to use part white and part whole wheat flour because I was running low on white. After reading the other reviews, I used 1/3 cup shortening with the intention of using one egg. Once I got everything mixed up, it was so sticky I had to add more flour without ever adding the egg! the only other change I made was I added a capful of each vanilla and strawberry extract. They turned out good and tasted good, but without the strawberry extract, I don't know how much I would have liked them. I will make these again, with my changes.

These aren't bad cookies; but they aren't great. They taste like sweet bread, really. I followed the advice of the other reviewer and added an egg, but that made the dough too sticky to roll into balls and press flat. Instead, I used a spherical tablespoon scoop and then pressed them flat with my (clean) fingers, and THEN I put the sprinkles on them. Also, they were done baking after just 10 minutes, not 12-14. Still, there just isn't much to these cookies other than their fun and festive colors. Like I said, they're not bad. But they're not good, either. I probably won't make them again.
