Tips:

  • Use unsalted butter: This will help you control the amount of salt in the cookies. If you only have salted butter, omit the additional salt called for in the recipe.
  • Chill the dough: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Use a cookie scoop: This will help you get evenly sized cookies.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: This will help ensure that the cookies are cooked through without being overbaked.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.
