Cookies can be baked right away or dough can be chilled before baking. Bake the cookies on a parchment lined sheet pan or directly on the sheet pan. I use an ice cream scoop to get even cookies. 6 big cookies will fit on one pan. Bake in the heated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the middle is set, it shouldn’t look raw but just set. The edges should be lightly golden, you don’t want too much color on these. Leave them on the sheet pan on a rack for 3 minutes and then place them directly on the rack. If they fall apart when you try to remove them, that means they need to cook for 2 more minutes. If you leave them on the pan a few more minutes, they should firm up.
