Spread confections' sugar in shallow dish. Working with 1 tablespoon of dough at a time, roll dough into balls, then roll balls in confectioners' sugar to coat.
• 4. Transfer balls to prepared sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart. Bake cookies until edges are set but centers are still soft and puffy, 18 to 20 minutes, swiching and rotating baking sheets halfway through baking. Let cookies cool on sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire rack and let cool completely before serving. Repeat with remaining dough using cooled, freshly lined baking sheets.
• 5. The recipe was alittle vague but after reading it a few times I took it to mean that you bake it 9-10 minutes on lower rack and then switch it to upper rack to finish baking for 9-10 minutes. It turned out well any way.

• Bake, rotating the pans from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 18 to 20 minutes. Let them cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
