  • Use cold butter. This will help to create a flaky crust.
  • Work the dough quickly. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown. Overbaking will make them dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • For a richer flavor, add chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit to the dough.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the sugar syrup by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
