Recipe tips and tricks

• Don’t melt the butter, make sure to soften at room temperature.
• Be sure to to over mix the dough. This can cause them not to rise when baking.
• Use parchment paper to line cookie sheets.
• If you like extra chocolate chips, remove the cookies from the oven about 1 minute before being done. Carefully push a few extra chocolate chips into the tops of the cookies and then finish baking.
• These cookies take about 10 minutes to cook. You will know they are done when the edges start to turn golden brown. They will set up and harden as they cool down.

How to store

Store: Once they have cooled, place the cookies in an airtight container. You can store them at room temperature for about 3 days.

Freeze: These cookies freeze well. Once they have cooled off, place them on a cookie sheet and freeze until they turn solid. Place them in a freezer safe bag or container and freeze for 3-4 months.
