Notes

Don’t overmix the batter; mix until just combined. Overmixed cookie batter leads to dry cookies.
Use either a silicone cookie sheet or line your baking sheet with parchment paper; otherwise, the cookies will stick after baking.
Let them cool fully on the pan before you move them, as they’re pretty delicate when warm.
Store them in an airtight container for 3-5 days on the counter.
