I found it easiest
to just use my hands
to put the cookies
on the cookie sheets
if you are using metal cookie sheets
line them with parchment paper
I make my cookies
on the smaller side
as smaller people
will be eating them
make sure you flatten
the cookie dough


these cookies
depending on the type
of cookie sheet
took about 15 - 20 minutes to bake
and tasted soooo GOOD


my kids have been
eating them up
and they were
easy and fast
just my style
