Notes
- Bake with space in-between: These egg-free, dairy-free cookies do still spread. So leave at least 1 ½-2 inches between each scoop of dough.
- To reduce spreading: Allow the cookie dough to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before baking. Likewise, chilling (especially overnight) allows the flavors to meld for overall better tasting and softer cookies.
- Be careful not to overbake: If they look slightly underdone in the middle when you remove them from the oven, that’s fine. The residual heat will continue to cook them, and they firm up as they cool.
- Softer cookies: Reduce the baking time by 1-2 mins for a softer, chewy interior.
