Step 7

Chill the dough for at least 2 hours in the fridge.

Step 8

Drop balls of cookie dough onto a parchment-lined tray, ensuring a two-inch spacing between each portion. Opt for three tablespoons of cookie dough for larger-sized cookies. My cookies used about two tablespoon of cookie dough.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still be soft.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 11

Once cooled, serve and enjoy!
