CHEF TIPS.
Measure ingredients accurately: any excess flour will alter the moisture in the cookies.
Use the scoop and level method to remove excess flour when you scoop flour from the main container.
Use room temperature ingredients
Cold ingredients such as eggs do not blend well with the rest of the ingredients. Remove the eggs from the fridge an hour before you bake.
Leave two or one inch between the cookies as you place them on the baking tray. This is to give room for spreading during the baking.
