Special Precautions and Tips:
- Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately, especially the flour. Too much flour can result in dry, crumbly cookies.
- Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing will result in tough cookies.
- If you do not have parchment paper, you can lightly grease the baking sheet with butter.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container. This will help prevent them from becoming soggy.
