  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  4. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls about 1 inch apart onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten lightly with the palm of your hand.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until cookies start to brown around the edges, being careful not to over-bake, for 11 to 13 minutes. Transfer cookies immediately to a wire rack to cool.
