Expert Tips

A trick for making drop cookies the same size and shape: Use a spring-handled cookie or ice-cream scoop. A #16 scoop holds 1/4 cup dough.

Cookie dough can be covered and refrigerated up to 24 hours before baking. If it's too firm, let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.

I decided to try this recipe because I thought it sounded like a nice change. It was nice, but I won't make it again. These cookies are incredibly sweet!

What is the "1/2" referring to on the recipe between 2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda?
