Notes
*These cookies do have a tendency to spread, so I like to place them a few inches apart! If you're worried about them spreading, you can always chill the dough for about 45 minutes! If they do spread too much while they're baking, you can use a round cookie cutter to swirl the cookies around as soon as they come out of the oven. This will help push the edges of the cookie back into itself creating a smaller, perfectly round cookie!
