Use a tablespoon measure to scoop out cookie dough balls. Roll them in your hands to create a neat ball.
Place the rolled ball onto the lined baking sheet and use something flat to flatten the cookies.
Bake your cookies for 8-10 minutes, until the edges turn light golden and the center is still slightly soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes when you first remove them from the oven. After 5 minutes, transfer them to a cooling rack.
