Special Precautions and Tips:
- For chewier cookies, bake for 10 minutes. For crispier cookies, bake for 12 minutes.
- Don't overmix the dough, as this will result in tough cookies.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it becomes manageable.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely before decorating them, as the sprinkles will not adhere to warm cookies.
