  • Allow the batter to sit for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat. Scoop cookies by the heaping (or 2) tablespoon. Roll and then gently press down.
  • Bake for 10 minutes or. Until the cookies look a bit crackly all over and the center is set. Remove from oven and let the cookies cool for 2-3 minutes on the baking sheet before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely. Sprinkle with salt if desired. Serve warm or room temperature.
