Why are my cookies spreading too much?

Make sure to chill the dough for at least 20 minutes before baking. Under-creaming the butter mixture or using warm dough can also cause excessive spreading.

Can I use different chocolate in these cookies?

Yes! You can substitute with milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, or any high-quality chocolate chips. Adjust the amount based on your preference.

How do I keep the cookies crispy?

Store cookies in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers. Keep them at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Can these cookies be frozen?

Yes! Freeze the dough balls for up to 3 months, or baked cookies for up to 2 months. Bake frozen dough balls directly from the freezer, adding 2-3 minutes to baking time.

What temperature should my butter be?

Butter should be room temperature (about 68-70°F), soft enough to yield to pressure but still holding its shape. This ensures proper creaming with sugar.
