Tips:

  • Use room temperature butter. This will help the cookies spread evenly and bake more evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the dough, making the cookies light and airy.
  • Gradually add the eggs, one at a time. This will help prevent the dough from curdling.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent the cookies from breaking.
