Tips:

- Use high-quality, fresh ingredients for the best results. - Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before starting. This will help them mix together more easily and create a smoother batter. - Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. - Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape in the oven. - Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking can make them dry and crumbly. - Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This will help them set and firm up.
