Notes
- It's important to allow the cookie dough time to chill so the butter can solidify. Doing this will help make sure your cookies don't spread too much.
- Allow your ingredients to come to room temperature before using.
- You can use store bought chocolate chunks or chop a chocolate baking bar.
