- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking chocolate chip cookies is 350°F (175°C). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the centers will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will take too long to bake and they will be dry.
