Notes
- Don't overmix the dough once the flour is added; this can result in tough cookies. Mix until just combined. - For perfectly baked cookies, I've found that removing them from the oven when the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underdone yields the chewiest results as they continue to cook on the hot baking sheet.
- To achieve an even bake, rotate your baking sheets halfway through the cooking time. - Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
