Notes
- Chill the dough after mixing in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This makes it easier to work with and helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too mucFor smaller cookies, use a small cookie scoop.
- Natural peanut butter tends to separate. If you use it, be sure to stir it well so that the oil is completely incorporated.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Freeze the cookies for up to 3 months in an airtight container. Thaw at room temperature.
