  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the dough, making the cookies lighter and more tender.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set: Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
