Expert Tips

• Measure flour correctly. To measure flour correctly, use a spoon to scoop flour into a measuring cup made for dry ingredients and slightly overfill it. Then, use the back of a knife or other straight-edged utensil to level the flour across the cup. Do not scoop the flour. When you scoop, the flour gets packed too tightly and you will end up with more flour than the recipe calls for.
• Use a baking mat or parchment paper to line your cookie sheet. I don't recommend coating your baking sheet with butter or oil spray because it creates an overly greasy sheet that will make your cookies spread.
