8. Scoop Dough: Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
10. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
