Recipe Notes

  • Make sure all of the ingredients are at room temperature.
  • Measure the flour with a kitchen scale, if using too much flour the cookies will not spread and be too dense, if not enough flour, the cookies will spread too wide.
  • If you do not have bread flour, use all-purpose flour.
  • If the cookies do not spread, lower the oven temperature to 327F (160C) and use a light pan.
  • The bigger the cookie scoop is, the wider the cookies will spread, so consider that when spacing the raw cookies.
