Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (or 325°F if using a nonstick baking sheet). Lightly grease the baking sheet with cooking spray or butter.
  2. Place spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  3. Bake until the edges are light golden brown, about 16 to 19 minutes. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
  4. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a plate or wire rack to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

For softer cookies, bake on the lower end of the time range (16 minutes).

If you prefer crispier edges, bake closer to 19 minutes.

The dough is safe to eat raw, so feel free to sneak a taste before baking!

Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
