Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Look for organic, fair-trade, and locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature. If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will not cook through.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and flavor.
