4
Gradually add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until combined.
5
Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between cookies. Alternatively, for extra sweetness and crunch on the outsides of the cookies, roll the dough into balls and then roll in sugar before placing on the baking sheets.
6
Bake, one sheet at a time, for 10 to ⏱️ 11 minutes, or until the cookies are puffed, spread, and just beginning to turn lightly golden brown around the edges. Let cool on the baking sheets for ⏱️ 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
