yes, I always weigh my ingredients, in fact I actively search out recipes that include weights b/c it makes recipes more foolproof. I’m not at a higher altitude or make any substitutions. Very strange!

I’m so sorry to hear this happened, Jen! Did you weigh your flour? Did you make any substitutions? Are you at a higher altitude by chance? I have a video right above the ingredients that may be helpful in the future. 🙁

I agree with the other reviews – the dough is SO CRUMBLY! There’s definitely something not matching between your experience and the written recipe b/c there’s lots of the same comments here on the same repeat issue.

Trying to roll it out was crazy hard, it kept cracking and breaking constantly. . . I was moving pieces to fill in holes as I was rolling it out. THEN it was impossible to roll up because it just kept crumbling apart. (and I make all my recipes by weight)

It was DELICIOUS though. It’s a shame the dough isn’t easier to handle, because I would totally make these again otherwise. 🙁

Did you weigh your flour? If you accidentally had a little too much flour it could be dry and crumbly. Did you make any other substitutions?

I’m so glad they were such a hit, Mohini! Unfortunately I don’t have a good suggestion for making them eggless as I haven’t personally tried it. 🙁

Hi Jody! I’m so sorry to hear this happened! You shouldn’t need a whole egg here. Did you happen to weigh your flour? Did you make any substitutions? The video right above the recipe may be helpful. 🙁

I followed instructions but my dough was do dry even before putting in refrigerator. Why not use a whole egg not just yoke. I had to pitch it because there was so way to roll it out without all the cracks and crumbling. I think there needs to be more liquid for the dough.

I’ve made these cookies several times and are amazing!! I’m baking them for a friend who loves chocolate, do you think I could dip them (after they bake) in melted chocolate? or the flavor would be too weird?

Hi Simcha! We’re so sorry that your dough was so difficult. Did you measure your flour by weight or using cups? It sounds like too much flour was added 🙁

I tried to make these cookies but the dough was so crumbly and dry I couldn’t roll it, even with the assistance of wax paper. I measured everything exactly like the recipe said so I don’t know what I did wrong.

In reply to Sam.

Yummy cookies! The swirl looked great and any cracks in the rolling were easily patchable. I rolled out my dough slightly larger than suggested and got a whopping 44 cookies out of the roll! Definitely a crowd pleaser for my family.

I agree that it is difficult. But just like Sam in the video I had to use a spatula basically the entire time to help pry it up from the counter. I also think my dough was a little too soft to work with easily. That being said, the dough is very malleable so even if it does crack its very easy to repair.
