Delicious, simple recipe! I followed the recipe and made no changes, I personnally think it tastes best with the topping.

I love the texture of these cookies. All the cookie I've baked turned out harder/crispier than advertised ("soft, chewy cookie", etc) but this was perfectly soft. I omitted the lemon zest because I didn't have any, so maybe that's why I didn't really like my batch. Also, the almond flavour was really overwhelming which I didn't like, maybe it had to do with the absence of lemon zest? Overall, I think that this recipe has great potential and I would definitely try it again with the lemon zest and less almond extract. I even sprinkled some sugar on top for more sweetness! :) Other reviews say that it gets softer as it sits around but I don't think that's a bad thing, as long as it has good taste. I didn't finish all mine because it was soft with bad flavour.
