- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the cookies, making them lighter and more tender.
- 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 to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature: This will help them to develop a chewy texture.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to firm up.
