⁉️ FAQ
Do you have questions about this recipe? Here are the answers to the most commonly asked questions.
Cookies are usually too dry because too much flour was added. If you overbake your cookies, they’ll be dry, as well.
Gently spoon your flour into your measuring cup and level it off with the flat of a knife. This prevents packing and using too much flour.
One of the best ways to make chewy cookies is to slightly undertake them. Then, let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet to allow carry-over cooking to fully bake the cookies without drying them out.
