Notes
- Don’t over bake the cookies. You’ll know when they are done when they are set around the edges and the tops have cracked. Test with a toothpick, when a few crumbs are sticking to the toothpick they are done.
- Store the completely cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 3-4 days. (depending on how warm your house is).
- You can also freeze them in a freezer safe container for up to two months.
