  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately. This is important to ensure that your cookies turn out properly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the cookies, making them light and tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming tough.
  • Fold in the dry ingredients gradually. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming overmixed, which can make them tough.

  • Bake the cookies at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. This will help to ensure that the cookies are cooked through but not overbaked.
