We're sorry to hear that you had some trouble with this recipe, Debby! It sounds like a tad too much flour snuck its way into the mixing bowl — we recommend either using a kitchen scale to weigh your ingredients or using the [fluff and sprinkle technique](https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/videos/baking-skills/how-to-measure-flour) for measuring flour in volume. This will make for a dough that is a bit smoother and doesn't have any dry spots. We hope this helps for future baking adventures!
