Special Precautions and Tips:
- Do not overmix the dough, as this will result in tough cookies.
- If you don't have parchment paper, you can grease the baking sheet instead.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack, as they will be too fragile to handle when they are hot.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
