Notes
- Measure your flour correctly! Adding too much flour to the recipe is the most common mistake. The best, and easiest way to measure flour is by using a scale. If you don't have one then fluff your flour with a spoon, sprinkle it into your measuring cup, and use a knife to level it off.

- Make sure to scrape the bowl down several times when making the batter. Stray pieces of unmixed butter of flour will disturb the texture of your cookies.
- This is a great dough to make in advance and freeze for on demand cookies later. I like to freeze the dough after rolling out so if defrosts quickly. Make sure to wrap very well before freezing.
- I rolled these cookies to 1/4 inch but they could be thicker or thinner. Adjust baking times accordingly.
- If you only have salted butter then just use that and reduce the salt added to 1/4 tsp. Unless you love salty chocolate baked goods like I do, then add the full 3/4 tsp.
