Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter helps create a flaky, tender cookie. If your butter is too warm, it will spread too much and the cookies will be tough.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the flavors to meld and makes the cookies easier to handle.
  • Use a variety of mix-ins: You can use any combination of mix-ins you like in these cookies. Some popular options include chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, and candy.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly golden brown around the edges and the centers should be just set. If you overbake the cookies, they will be dry.
