- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from sticking together.
