• 7 note: if you have a "squeeze trigger" type of ice cream scoop, use this to scoop cookie dough ungreased cookie sheets. this will insure that the cookies are uniform in size, and prevent some from being over-baked, and some from being under-baked.
• 8 do not crowd; allow at least 2 inches between each cookie. bake in a 350 degree oven for 10-12 minutes.
• 9 note: it is very important not to over-bake. the cookies should be lightly golden brown, but not shiny on top.
