Notes
Do not overmix the dough; overmixing leads to tough cookies.
Always chill your dough for at least 30 minutes; this prevents spreading and maintains crispness.
Bake in batches to ensure even cooking.
Use parchment paper for easy removal.
Store assembled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
Refrigerate for up to a week for longer storage.
Unbaked dough can be frozen; thaw, roll, and bake when ready.
Baked and filled cookies can be flash frozen on a baking sheet, then transferred to an airtight freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature.
