Baking and serving:

  • line a baking tray with parchment paper or spray with non-stick spray,
  • using a large spoon, form equal size rounds of dough (leave enough space between each cookie as they will spread out a bit as they bake),
  • (optional) refrigerate for 15 minutes before baking,
  • bake the cookies until the edges turn a light golden color (about 15 minutes),
  • once done, cool for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack,
  • allow to cool completely before serving.
