Step 4

Using a 2-tablespoon scoop, drop dough 3 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets and lightly press down on dough to spread the dough into 2-inch circles (there should be room for six or eight cookies at a time).

Step 5

Bake until cookies are nicely browned around edges, about 20 minutes (bake a little longer for crisper cookies). Remove from oven, cool cookies on baking sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
