Butter, brown sugar, and sugar
We plan to barrage you with cookie recipes over the next couple weeks. This brings the welcome consequence of a barrage of fresh baked cookies. Joy!
Reminders – Use good butter, cold as your mixer will work it. Chilling the dough after mixing will make it a little easier to work with. Once drop cookies like these are pressed, they will still spread, but less than you might think.
Seasons Greetings and Good Stuff!
