Special Precautions and Tips: - Make sure to use softened butter, as cold butter will not cream properly. - Do not overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough. - If you don't have parchment paper, you can grease the baking sheet instead. - These cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
