- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make your cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature. Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them rise and give them a crispy exterior.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. Letting the cookies cool completely will help them set and develop their full flavor.
