Easy Cookie Tips

When baking, make sure to not overbake your cookies. It’s better to underbake just a tad, so they are fudgy and soft. Overbaking will dry them out even by a few minutes.
Let cookies sit on baking sheet after taking them out of the oven for a few minutes, so they set up and don’t break or tear apart when you transfer them to a wire baking rack.

Storing Lemon Cookies

Cookies should be stored in a covered container at room temperature for up to 4-5 days, if they last that long!

Can I Freeze the Cookie Dough?

Of course! Roll the dough into balls and freeze. You can bake them straight from frozen, no need to thaw first! Just add a couple more minutes to your baking time!
