Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: High-quality ingredients will result in better-tasting cookies.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together thoroughly: This will help to create a light and fluffy cookie.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at the correct temperature: If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and may burn. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will not cook through.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before glazing: This will help to prevent the glaze from running off the cookies.
