... I just found your page and your pictures are amazing! These look awesome. I also live in Germany so I'm wondering... are these dry and crumbly like German cookies or kind of chewy? Thanks. |

... Hello Erin and thank you for you nice words. The cookies are actually crumbly but not hard to bite into. |
