My husband and I have become cookie snobs. We cannot eat them if they are too crunchy or have too much of a cake texture. But these little jewels are thin and chewy and good even cold next day- I know, ate half the batch typing this. I use almond extract instead of vanilla. The flavor profile changes completely and gives it a slightly floral fruity taste. I recommend almond extract over vanilla for most sweets.
