Recipe is easy to follow. Had to bake for 15 minutes. I wish I would have taken a picture at the 10 minute mark, they were not even close.
Taste amazing.

I’m so excited that you liked the recipe! A lot of the cookie recipes that I share need to cool down on the baking sheet for a bit to allow the heat from the pan to continue baking them in the center. Definitely try that next time! 🙂
