Notes
Tips + Storage
- Store your cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Or freeze them in zip-top bags for up to a year.
- Don’t overbake—take them out when the centers still look slightly underdone. They’ll set as they cool.
- Chewy texture – Avoid overmixing the dough to keep cookies soft and chewy.
- Soft butter – For easy mixing, let butter sit at room temp for an hour or microwave it gently for a few seconds.
