Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a freezer-safe container for up to three months. Make sure your butter is at room temperature and avoid overmixing after adding flour for soft cookies. Consider sprinkling sea salt on top before baking or mixing in peanut butter chips for variations.
