These cookies did not turn out as well as I was hoping. The dough, even after chilled, was hard to work with. Slicing the dough usually made it fall apart. All of the cinnamon sugar just fell out completely. I baked them for 12 minutes and they were still very doughy. And they had no flavor whatsoever! I was disappointed.

Wow, I was so disappointed in this recipe! First of all the dough didn't hold together, even after 4 + hours in the fridge. I followed another reviewers tip for adding more filling - another mistake, all it did was add to the crumble disaster. There was no way this recipe would make 5 dozen cookies, it barely made 2 dozen crumble piles on the cookie sheet. It tasted fine ... but we won't make this recipe ever again.
