Notes

Don't Over-Bake: It's important to not overbake your cookies. When you remove your cookie, they might not look done but they will continue to cook on the pan.
Don't Over-Mix: Over mix your cookies they could come out of the oven flat. Make sure to mix until just combined.
Freezing Cookie Dough: I love making extra cookie dough to freeze for later. All you need to do is roll them into balls and then freeze them.
Place them on a sheet pan and into the freezer. This way they all freeze individually without getting stuck together.
Once they are frozen you can place them all in a large freezer bag together.
Baking Frozen Cookie Dough: Start by removing the cookie dough from your freezer.
Take out the cookie dough balls from the baggy and place them on a baking dish to thaw.
Once the cookie dough is back to room temperature you can bake them according to the directions.
