FAQs

Can I use olive oil instead of butter?
While olive oil can be used, it will change the flavor and texture. Stick with butter for the best results.

How can I prevent my cookies from spreading too much?
Make sure to chill the dough for about 30 minutes before baking. This helps them hold their shape.

Yes! You can substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend, and the results should still be delicious.
