Tips:

  • Chill the cookie dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the baking sheet. This will help ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help prevent them from sticking together.
